Chawleigh Devon
Now &amp; then (2007) 
The Earl of Portsmouth pub, Chawleigh Devon named after the local landowner and benefactor .
It  reopened in April 2022, which pub had had an ACV granted on the property.   The local community worked to purchase it and, although it was sold privately, the ACV and the local campaign to save it were certainly testament to its viability
It is a friendly pub with two local / regional ales usually available.  Home cooked food with meat in particular being sourced locally.   It hosts teams for darts, pool and skittles.
