A statement on behalf of owners Christopher Robinson and James Brighty said following refurbishment in 2018 it has failed to make a profit and they decided to close in March 2020 following "substantial losses". The change of use has been met with "strong opposition" from the local community and The Five Bells Inn Preservation Society (FBIPS) was set up as a result with the aim of "securing" the premises as an asset of community value (ACV).
