"Postcode Pubcrawl" 

As our "Postcode Pubcrawl" event falls on Halloween we're visiting the Carpenters Arms in Walesby, which is reputed to have its own ghost. Join us for a meal and maybe some ghost spotting! The staff are welcoming and I have sampled their excellent menu with main courses from £5.95. Please book with me by 20th so I can confirm numbers. The whitewashed pub is located on a corner on the B6387 near Ollerton and has the postcode NG22 9NJ if you use the internet to find directions. Please note there is another pub called the Carpenters Arms a mile or so away on the same road but in the village of Broughton so don't get confused!
