West Suffolk CAMRA have just published our new Bury St Edmunds Beer Trail. The leaflet will be distributed around pubs in the Bury area in December, but you can download a copy below. https://westsuffolk.camra.org.uk/dl.php?id=205890

This news was received from Star Wing brewery.

Hi all, we have decided to finally close Star Wing Brewery for good (in its current business format), although we will be honouring some private bookings we have into mid-October. The tap room will now be closed permanently. Thanks to those of you who supported us through the ups and downs post-pandemic. Bottles available from the brewery door until they are gone! We wish you well for the future. Mark, Adam and Ruth.

This relatively easy walk literally passes the door of three real ale village pubs.

Note whilst some of the walk is on pavements and small lanes there are some parts on unmetalled tracks and paths and can be muddy in wet weather.

The walk starts from Thurston Community Cente (Point A on the map). Post Code for Sat. Nav. is IP31 3TG. Grid reference: TL928651, where you can park in the New Green car park.

If arriving in Thurston by train, on leaving the station forecourt turn right and walk up Station Hill. The Community Center is a 3 minute walk away signposted on the right hand side
