Pub Of The Month - The Woolpack, Slad

Nestled in the Slad Valley, The Woolpack has been celebrated for its unique charm for more than 300 years.
You may have heard of the pub's delights through the poet and writer Laurie Lee, who was celebrated for his acclaimed childhood memoir ‘Cider with Rosie’. Lee was a regular visitor and often referred to the spot with great affection. It still holds the magic & simplicity of an untouched treasure. The quaint pub embraces a fireside tavern, dining room, snug & vine-covered terraces, providing an intimate backdrop for people to come together and enjoy real ales, craft beer, fine ciders, beautiful food & good cheer!

The Woolpack is led by a fantastic team, with head chef Adam Glover, who has been part of the team since 2013. The menu is led by seasonal ingredients, with vegetables and flowers from the kitchen gardens at Lypiatt Park. The menu is concise and celebrates these local ingredients, allowing the quality of these ingredients to do the talking.

Richard Greasby Runs Another Ultra Marathon - Running In a Land Of Fire & Ice
There was a certain inevitability that soon after my double marathon in the Atlas Mountains in 2024 that I would be open to another challenge whilst legs, health and my wonderfully supportive wife Carol allowed. This has all followed a growing, but unplanned, running adventure since 2019 with 14 ultra marathons and over 6000 training miles (including 100-ish half-marathon training runs). Needless to say, my physio is seeing more of me than ever!

The last couple of months over the summer holidays have been unexpectedly busy for the Butler Sherborn residential teams. Traditionally, the property market tends to slow down during the school break, as many families travel abroad and shift their focus away from house hunting. However, the summer of 2025 has defied expectations.

Preparing To Sell Your Home
Instruct a solicitor at an early stage to review your title and title plan before taking your property to market. Obtaining legal advice at the outset allows any potential issues to be identified and addressed in advance, significantly reducing the risk of delays or complications later in the process.
