The community must raise the agreed asking price of £160,000 in order to buy the property and will shortly be launching a major fundraising campaign under the 'Save the Crook' banner to start the process.
In addition to funds being raised through a programme of activities at the former Inn during this year, including the now well-established Tweedsmuir Music Festival, we are optimistic that support will be forthcoming from the community and through the funds that have been set up by the two windfarms in the local area, at Glenkerie and the Clyde extension.
Please support us.
Community Clear Up
The Crook Inn has had a makeover, and the results are quite startling. Teams of gardeners weeded and pruned, tree surgeons chopped and lopped, fencers drove in posts, strimmers transformed acres of overgrown grass, children discovered exciting things in overgrown corners, and tractor drivers made it all possible by clearing the site of debris as fast as everyone else could produce it. It was a monumental effort, and everyone should be proud of what has been achieved. This was community spirit at it's best and proves Tweedsmuir has still got it.
