LOCATION (DE56 2AG)
The village of Heage in Derbyshire is situated midway between Belper and Ripley and is today famous for its recently-restored six-sailed windmill. Work on building the mill started in 1791 and it was first recorded as working in 1797. The tower is built from local sandstone and after its recent renovation it is now back in working order. Heage is a scattered village lying between the larger towns of Ripley, Ambergate and Belper. The village is in two main parts, Heage itself, and Nether Heage (or formerly High Heage and Low Heage). Neither village has a centre and consists of houses and cottages scattered along the roads and lanes, with some small estates of modern housing. The name is from the Anglo-Saxon 'Heegge' meaning high, lofty or sublime. Situated in the Amber Valley area, the main occupations of the original inhabitants would have been farming. There are still family-owned farms today, rearing sheep and dairy cattle and growing cereal and root crops. You will find the village either from the A38 then B6374 or from the A610 and then the B6374. The pub is to be found on Brook Street and is on a main bus route.

THE BUSINESS
The business has been owned by our clients for 5 years and due to bereavement have decided to retire. Prior to this, the owners chose to trade up to the VAT threshold totally wet driven. Without doubt there is a tremendous opportunity to take trade further with new inspired and energetic owners. Alternative use (subject to PP’s) is also feasible. The property does not have a “listing” and there are other business’s within the village therefore change of use if required should not be a problem.
ECP will be made available upon request.

THIS SHOULD BE CONSIDERED FOR ALTERNATIVE USE OR AS A LOW KEY EASY TO RUN LOCALS PUB.
