George and Judith have finally decided running a pub is not for them and are leaving shortly. They maintain they have been defeated by poor support from the brewery - S and N. It is to be hoped that the next couple who run the pub can be given the prompt, active and financial incentives to return the Swinside to what it used to be ie a bustling and friendly countryside inn offering good basic fare and care. Currently the establishment is in a downward spiral. Is it to become another boarded up pub? There are many Swinside fans who have drited away over recent years who would love to see it in its former glory.
