Heart ruled the head when Stamford businessman decided to spend £620,000 during lockdown to save a village pub.
Spotting potential in the Millstone at Barnack, Paul McSorley has big plans to breathe new life into the Grade II listed building, and has pencilled in its re-opening for June 4.
The Millstone called time last year, prompting Barnack Parish Council to launch a campaign to save the community's last remaining pub.

Paul, who owns a Stamford-based development business, originally booked a viewing with a redevelopment in mind, but was soon swayed by the building's charms and the community's passion for their pub.
