Rallying call to help Save the Silks in Ogbourne St Andrew Members of the Ogbourne parish, near Marlborough, are reminding the community and beyond that there are just days left to #SaveTheSilks by becoming a shareholder, by investing as little as £200 allowing the community to buy and save the previously popular village pub, the Silks on the Downs. If successful the pub will become a major community hub, providing a warm and welcoming space to meet as well as a valuable lifeline to the community during what continues to be a challenging time for everyone. The Silks, as it is known locally, has not opened its doors since the pandemic struck last March.
