Hereford's Black and White (Public) House

Well done to everyone who spotted that the below story was in fact an April fool! But, come to think of it, maybe its not that bad an idea afterall - remember where you heard it first!

In a confirmation of recent rumours, sources close to Herefordshire Council revealed last night that Hereford's Black and White house is to be opened as a Pub.


As part of the deal the Black and White House will remain open as a museum but will incorperate a fully licensed bar in the evenings which is sure to be a great attraction for both tourists and locals alike.

It is thought that local landlords will welcome the idea and if it proves a success more of Hereford's landmarks may get a pub makeover. Speculation is rife of a wine bar being incorperated into the Mappa Mundi exhibition centre and the chained library being opened as a bar and bistro.
