Many years of day in, day out toil by Evan and Gayle Jones and their team at Rudd’s Pub in Nobby was highlighted last Wednesday at an all-day event celebrating the opening of a new outdoor area and Steele Rudd Memorial.

Owners Evan and Gayle Jones have always placed an emphasis on the pub’s history, named after one of the region’s best -known figures, author Steele Rudd (the nom-de-plume of Arthur Hoey Davis).

They have also worked diligently to modernise the pub, opened in 1893, for example by building a big ‘barn’ function room in 2019 and now the new outdoor area.

When it came to the Rudd’s Pub staff, all hands were on deck to make the day a success.

The day’s festivities began at 10am.

Guest travelled from across the region to attend, many who grew up in Nobby or with family connections, such as the Buckle family. After ample time to enjoy a few drinks, meals and live music, official proceedings began.

Speaking from a makeshift stage created using a truck, Evan spoke about his own history and his involvement with the pub. Continued on pages 4&5
