The area
The Three Crowns is located in the village of Ashurstwood, which is about a mile from East Grinstead in West Sussex.

There are several historic sites nearby such as Saint Hill Manor and Standen which attract local tourists.
Demographics
The pub benefits from being one of 2 pubs found in an area of around 2500 adults within a 20-minute walk of the front door. A large proportion of the affluent customer base is made up of families that have older children and the retired.
The offer
Available on our foundation tenancy agreement. The potential of this pub lies in developing a well thought through 50/50 food & drinks offer. What food would you look to implement in the pub?
