A public meeting was held in Flaxton Village Hall on Thursday 29th August 2024 to decide whether to submit a community bid to purchase The Blacksmiths Arms allowed under Asset of Community Value (ACV) Regulations.

Following constructive representations from many participants it was decided by a majority (but not unanimous) vote that the community would not be submitting a bid at this stage, preferring an outcome where the public house were to be purchased and re-opened by a commercial business.
