Essex actor Cliff Parisi, known to many as Fred Buckle in Call the Midwife is helping to save his village pub. The Queens Head in Littlebury near Saffron Walden has been closed for four months, but more than one-hundred supporters have now pledged to invest into buying it.

Cliff believes they can make the pub a success for the community...

A Greene King spokesperson said: 鈥淢aking the decision to sell a pub is never an easy one and after exploring all options, we no longer believe we are best placed to operate these pubs going forward.

We have therefore made the difficult decision to sell The Queen鈥檚 Head in Littlebury for existing use as a pub and are also progressing an offer from a community group for The Ickleton Lion, which is subject to contract and relevant approvals.
