The Rose and Crown in Snettisham, near Hunstanton, was shut in March in line with government regulations amid the coronavirus crisis, but finally made its return last week.

Owners Anthony and Jeanette Goodrich are encouraging bookings and have reduced the menu, while staff are also taking the temperatures of punters when they arrive at the pub.

“I think it was quite fortunate that the weather was not amazing on July 4. We’ve been very busy so far but everybody has been behaving themselves.
