Comment: I have a COI on this (I use this pub) but I don't think it has sufficient sourcing for notability from the look of this. Facebook cannot be used. And LLM seems to be used here, which isn't allowed or needed. However I'm sure notability can be established, given the history - and that's mainly under your previous name, the Skinner's Arms. Maybe contact HLHS via https://www.hexhamhistorian.org/contact-us/ for a list of sources. Ping me if you get stuck. ChrysGalley (talk) 10:00, 14 April 2026 (UTC)
