REAL-ALE enthusiasts dropped into the Wuthering Heights in Stanbury to present their award for winter Pub of the Season.

Members of the Keighley and Craven branch of the consumer group the Campaign for Real Ale (CAMRA) gathered for the ceremony.

CAMRA spokesman Colleen Holiday said the Wuthering Heights amply filled all the criteria needed to secure the Pub of the Season accolade.

She said: “Volunteer members seek out great beer quality, good atmosphere, friendly service, support for CAMRA aims, a a positive all-round feel to a pub.

“A traditional Yorkshire pub, the Wuthering Heights is friendly, warm and welcoming. Nicci Black and Darren Bennett and their team run a pub that offers great service to visitors to Bronte country and locals alike, and it is well-supported by both.”

CAMRA members presented the pub with a certificate and outdoor banner for advertising the award.
