The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge
A campaign has been launched to save one of Britain's Duke and Duchess of Cambridge's favourite pubs.
Prince William and Duchess Catherine have enjoyed many a romantic meal and quiet drink at the Old Boot Inn in Bucklebury, West Berkshire and even invited owner John Haley to their wedding in 2011, but he's now applied for planning permission to turn the 300-year-old building into a house.
Mr. Haley claims the Grade 2 listed pub, which is still open at the moment, is no longer viable as a business, prompting shocked locals to mount a "save our pub" campaign, which they hope William and Catherine will support.
Andy MacKenzie, who lives in the area, told the Daily Express newspaper: "The Old Boot Inn is a valuable village community asset and would be greatly missed.
"The pub is well used and famed for royal patronage".
Other residents opposing the transformation of the building say it would "cause irrevocable damage to the unique character of this beautiful village" and are urging West Berkshire Council to reject the plans.
However, the future of the eating and drinking establishment so far remains unclear as financial data vital to the viability report has yet to be examined.
