Brewing Communities
This report serves as a call to action for policymakers, developers, and communities alike to prioritise the creation of vibrant, connected spaces where people can come together.
By championing the role of pubs in these developments, we can ensure that the communities of tomorrow are not just places to live and work but also places to belong.
Chapter one looks at how we can relearn the art of making attractive, popular high streets, village greens and public realm for residents to be good neighbours, where pubs and shops can play their important practical and emotional part.
Chapter two studies a history of pubs in the UK, and with a new wave of new towns coming, how should they be formed and forged to help pubs and shops flourish, be resilient and adaptable, as a key component of British social life.
Chapter three takes a look at how we should design public places in new towns so that pubs and shops can put down roots.
Chapter four brings to life everything we know about successful places and successful pubs and how we can bring them together to create great new places, with great new pubs, high streets and flourishing neighbourhoods.
