SEVERAL pubs in Salisbury have been voted into the latest edition of the Good Beer Guide.

The guide is published today by the Campaign for Real Ale (CAMRA).

They include the Radnor Arms in Nunton, three miles south of Salisbury, and the New Inn, in New Street.

It is the first time both pubs have been voted into the into the Good Beer Guide by local CAMRA members.

The landlady of the Radnor Arms Louise Penny was presented with her Good Beer Guide certificate by Ian Turner, chairman of the Salisbury & South Wilts branch of CAMRA, and Andrew Hesketh, the branch secretary.

“I think it is very exciting and a great achievement,” said Louise, “It is hard work looking after these lovely ales, it takes a lot of time and effort.”

Ian Turner, chairman of the Salisbury & South Wilts branch of CAMRA, said: “We are lucky to have so many good pubs in this area and inclusion in the Good Beer Guide is a tremendous accolade for the very best of them.”

Altogether 130 pubs in the area covered by the Salisbury & South Wilts Branch of CAMRA were eligible for inclusion in Britain’s premier guide to real ale but CAMRA members chose only the top 15.

The full list of South Wiltshire pubs to be included can be found in the 2019 edition of the Good Beer Guide, which will be on sale from today.
