When, a while back, troubling news emerged from Thixendale that legendary landlord of The Cross Keys Steve Anstey was planning to act on his oft-repeated warning and finally retire.

There was much wailing and gnashing of teeth amongst those of us who have long been fans of his 35-year plus tenure at his entirely marvellous boozer. True to his word, Steve took his licence and his missus Mary and retired to a house a few yards up the road, happy to move from master of all he surveyed to a humble punter.

Newbies they may be, but they know enough to retain the award-winning ales, the hearty lunchtime sandwiches, the no-nonsense evening menu and - huge sigh of relief - the spectacular chips.
