Dear Sir,

One of the first duties carried out by the newly elected Aycliffe Village Councillor, Carl Robinson, was to declare open the beautifully refurbished Royal Telegraph public house.

Following a lot of hard work during lockdown in the Royal Telegraph, by Vicki and Phil, a new ambience has been created for the people of the village and their many customers from Great Aycliffe and beyond.

The residents are very lucky to have the Royal Telegraph and The County within the village, both offering great venues for all tastes.

Please make sure that you follow all safety advice when attending.

Carl Robinson
