If you love your local pub and want to protect it from demolition or change of use, make sure to list it with your local Council as an Asset of Community Value (ACV). You can nominate as a CAMRA Branch, as an informal group of 21 local people or as a Parish Council.
Please note that our Branch area is covered by both Cheltenham (CBC) and Tewkesbury (TBC) Borough Councils.
We are working with local community groups to facilitate listing Cheltenham Pubs as Assets of Community Value. Below lists out the current status in the branch. Unless otherwise stated, the listing has been instigated by Cheltenham CAMRA. If you wish engage us to help list your local please email our pubs officer at pubs@cheltenhamcamra.org.uk
Any updates to this list will be annotated with a (*) and described at the bottom of the page.
