A historic Oxford pub, The Lamb and Flag, which was a favourite watering hole of The Inklings – CS Lewis, JRR Tolkien, Charles Williams and other writers in their circle – which was closed in January 2021 as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic, reopened in October. The 17th century pub has been revived by The Inklings Group, a community interest company named after the famous literary group which once made it one of their main meeting places. The group has obtained a long-term lease on the property, which was once also frequented by Thomas Hardy. They released a statement saying:
‘We are determined to ensure that the next 408 years of this beloved pub will be as fun, interesting and impactful as the last 408 years. Our hope and belief is that the pub will remain as a community asset at the centre of the magical Oxford scene. The funds to ensure a sustainable future for the pub have already been committed. This community project is not exclusive in any way and all are welcome to become an Inkling.’
