Ramsey pub runner up in UK Pub of the Year competition

A Ramsey Pub has been congratulated as a runner up in a UK wide Pub of the Year competition.

The Trafalgar lost out to the Tamworth Tap in the Campaign for Real Ale contest.

Pubs in the competition are selected by CAMRA volunteers and judged on their atmosphere, decor, welcome, service, community focus and the quality of the beer.

It's the first time that a pub on the Island has got this far in the competition.
