Marton Village

The Appletree Inn closed its doors for the final time last night after a farewell party for Mel & TJ. They will be moving to a new business locally soon and their progress can be followed by visiting www.appletreeinn.co.uk

It appears that our pub will re-open under new management shortly; more information as it becomes available.

The pub signs come down for removal of the Appletree design and logo.

And signs in the windows tell the tale.

Normanby & Marton WI has received a certificate commemorating its 50 years of WI membership. The certificate is to be laminated and displayed in the Mission Room.

Professor Richard Lawton's book, "Marton A Short History" was officially launched at a reception in the Marton Mission Room on 22nd April 2009. Richard was present to sign copies of this excellent book which covers the history of Marton from the Bronze age to the modern day. See "Marton, a Short history" in the Navigation panel on the left of the page for more details.

It is sad that the reappearence of this website coincides with the imminent departure of Mel & TJ Drew from our village pub. Having spent the past 8 years hard at work resulting in the Appletree winning many awards including the prestigious National Dining Pub of the Year 2008, they recently issued this press release:

A number of old style signposts in the region have been refurbished and now look resplendent again. This example is from the Sinnington junction on  Marton Lane.
