Historic West Sussex village pub has a new owner

A 16th century pub in Rogate has been sold for an undisclosed sum.

The White Horse freehouse accommodates around 60 covers across its attractive bar and dining areas and has a generous garden overlooking the village sports field, said specialist business property adviser Christie and Co.

Alex Whyte, former owner of The White Horse, commented on the sale: “It has been a pleasure to revive this old pub back to being an asset in the village. I wish the new owners every success for the future.”

Richard Wood, regional director – Pubs & Restaurants at Christie & Co, added: “The White Horse generated strong interest from the outset, and its successful sale further underlines the depth of demand we’re seeing for freehold freehouses across the South of England, despite the continuing headwinds facing the sector.
