Come along to the popular Greek Night at the Fox and Hounds

The Fox and Hounds, Tytherington, will be holding their second Greek Night, a Cypriot Meze including a large selection of Eastern Mediterranean dishes, with influences from Turkey and Syria on 14th August.

This will include a variety of different foods and flavours, from home baked breads and dips including Humous and Babaghanoush, grilled meat and fish, Moussaka and Stifado, to fresh fruit platters and Greek desserts.

Adam and Michelle are the landlords of the Fox and Hounds, and part of Adam’s family is Greek Cypriot. The culture and the food has featured strongly in his upbringing, and the motivation behind putting on a Greek night came from Adam and Michelle’s recent family trip to Southern Cyprus.

Adam said, “The Fox and Hounds is a family run pub with a welcoming and unique atmosphere. Our Greek Nights are an extension of this, bringing a little bit of our background into what we do. Our first Greek Night in June was a great success; we had great fun and fantastic feedback, which is why we decided to put on another one.

“My mum has just returned from Cyprus with Ouzo and Turkish Delights ready for 14th August, and in true Greek family style, we will be working together in the kitchen – her doing it her way and me doing it the right way!”

The Fox and Hounds are taking bookings both in person and by phone on 01373 473902. The last Greek night was full, so it’s worth booking ahead.

  • Batsford Timber celebrates 37 years in business

Family-run timber business Batsford Timber is marking 37 years in business, continuing to serve customers across Wiltshire, Gloucestershire and the surrounding areas.

Known for reliable service and quality products, the company offers a wide range of fencing and outdoor timber materials, along with onsite commercial timber treatment solutions, giving customers everything they need under one roof.

Founded in 1989 by Bob Clark, a fencing contractor working across the Midlands and Cotswolds, the company was born out of frustration at the difficulty of sourcing reliable, high-quality fencing and timber materials. Spotting a gap in the market, Bob launched Batsford Timber to provide the products and service he had struggled to find himself.
