Stuart Broad’s Co-Owned Pub ‘Tap & Run’ Catches Massive Fire in England

The station manager at Nottinghamshire Fire and Rescue, Jonathan Wilson, informed the mirror.co.uk that no one was injured during the accident as there was nobody inside the building at the time of the fire.

“There was not believed to be anybody inside the building and the fire was contained to the building itself. Crews from Nottinghamshire and Leicestershire together have been working to deal with it. We are going to concentrate on putting the fire out — we are having a structural engineer have a look at the building as well to see if it is structurally safe, then there will be an investigation,” Wilson told mirror.co.uk.

Pub co-owners Stuart Board and Harry Gurney issued a statement over the incident in which they said they were devastated to learn about the incident. They also apologised to the villagers for the distress the fire caused them.

“We’re absolutely devastated to report that a fire broke out in the pub during the night. We are heartbroken to see our beautiful pub up in flames. We are so sorry that we will be unable to honour any bookings for the foreseeable future and sorry for any distress that the fire has caused to villagers. We will keep everyone updated on social media in the coming days and weeks,” the statement read.
