The tiny St Radegund pub on Kings Street closed its doors in 2019, but following five years of renovations, reopened in March 2024 with a new name, The Rad.

Back in March, the owner told Star the had converted the historic building into a 25-line craft beer taproom, and had tried to optimise capacity through clever design.
