Transparency is at the heart of our mission to return The Railway Inn to its rightful place as the centre of Norton Bridge. Our Steering Group recently met on 1st September 2026 to discuss our ongoing progress in securing the pub’s future. We invite all community members, supporters, and potential volunteers to read the full minutes of this meeting now available on our website. Staying informed is the best way to see how we are working together to bring back this essential community resource.
Local Artist – Anthony D Pugh, has gifted the Railway Inn Community Pub, the most incredible item!
He has very kindly painted a beautiful piece of art – called ‘Norton Bridge Village Life’, in support of our fundraising campaign to save the Railway Inn.
We are currently having 250 high quality prints, professionally produced. They will measure 14 x 12.5 inches, including a one inch border and will all be personally signed and numbered by the Artist.
I hate to use the ‘C’ word, but Christmas is getting closer! What a perfect, affordable gift for someone special in your life!
The unmounted and unframed prints will cost £20 each, plus p&p.
You will be able to buy these beautiful prints via Facebook, our Website – www.railwayinn.org, at any of our fundraising events or by liaising with a Committee member.
Just send us a message on Facebook or via our website and tell us the following:
How many you would like
How you would like to pay – by cash & collect your print or by bank transfer & we can post it to you.
Bank details are:
Railway Inn Community Pub Ltd Sort Code 08-92-99 Account No. 67499560
Your name, address and telephone number
We will have only 250 of these beautiful pieces of art available!

In addition to being able to purchase shares through our website, we have now also launched a campaign on Crowdfunder. This is intended to spread our reach to a wider audience who may not otherwise have seen our campaign.
We are still encouraging those following our campaign to purchase shares through our website at Share Application Form ; however you can also help us by sharing the Crowdfunder page with family, friends and your social networks to help us spread the message far and wide! The more support we get, the closer we get to being able to save the Railway Inn for the community 🙂
