Wealden MP Nus Ghani has nominated the Rose and Crown in Mayfield for the Parliamentary Pub of the Year awards.
The Parliamentary Pub of the Year awards, run by the Campaign for Real Ale, are a UK-wide competition to find the nation’s best pub, with each MP able to nominate on pub from their constituency.
Throughout August, Nus ran a competition inviting Wealden residents to nominate their favourite local pub, with the most popular pub to be nominated for the finals.
After reaching thousands of people across Wealden, 27 Wealden pubs were nominated to Nus. The Wheatsheaf in Crowborough came 3rd, while the Laughing Fish in Isfield, who won Pub Chef of the Year last year, came 2nd.
Nus Ghani, MP for Wealden, said: “I am delighted that Wealden residents have chosen the Rose and Crown in Mayfield to be nominated for the Parliamentary Pub of the Year awards.
“The response to my competition to nominate your favourite local pub was fantastic, and the fact that so many wonderful local Wealden pubs were suggested is testament to the diverse range of pubs we are lucky to have in Wealden. Thank you to the hundreds of people who took part.
“The Parliamentary Pub of the Year showcases the finest pubs across the country, and I am sure that the Rose and Crown will go far in the competition.”
