After an uncertain and difficult time, the well-known pub announces that it is now in safe hands—at least for now. The Cart & Horses is best known for being the pub where Iron Maiden played during their early days in the 70s. As a result, the pub has become a pilgrimage site for Iron Maiden fans from all over the world, and it has gradually become entirely dedicated to its historical past. The building housing The Cart & Horses was in danger of being bought out, but it now seems to have secured its future.
From The Cart & Horses:
“Thank you all for your unwavering support in helping us secure Cart & Horses from falling into the wrong hands!
