Heard from a couple of sources that the Ridge Farm may be come an Indian Restaurant and the that the Dun Cow is to reopen as the Milfield - any one confirm?

The 'Ridge to become an Indian' has been doing the rounds for about 18months now; I was even told in the spring of this year that all the staff had been given their notice and it was to close the next week. I think we can safely assume that one wasn't true. I can't see why it would close, to be honest, as even in this week of the great white hope opening it's still been busy.

The Dun Cow has had a lot of money spent on it, according to someone 'in the know', and apparently has been kitted out as a restaurant on top. As far as I know, whoever did it - I was told the name - now intends to sell because he doesn't stand a hope in hell against the corporate multi million pound approach of the people at the top of the street. That's what Wetherspoons does to a small town - think of it like a pub-Tesco's.

The restaurant at the Dun Cow is going to reopen this week as La Torre it will be under new management but will still have the same great chef, Phillipo and his brother Roberto as head waiter. Getting really excited ..... Have missed it whilst it's been closed.

Good to see resolution on the restaurant being closed. Will have to pop down sometime soon
