Jeremy Clarkson reveals opening date of his pub
15th August 2024
Farmer and celebrity Jeremy Clarkson, who recently purchased a pub in Cotswolds and has been renovating it for the last few weeks, has just announced when the venue will open for the guests.
Mr Clarkson has recently become the owner of The Windmill pub in Burford, Oxfordshire. He revealed that the historic Cotswolds pub cost him ‘less than £1 million’.
He has now shared with his fans when the pub will officially open.
In a post on his social media, Mr Clarkson referred to today’s A-level results and revealed the opening date of his latest venture.
On 15th August, he wrote: ‘Don’t worry if your A level results aren’t what you were hoping for. I got a C and two Us, and here I am, 46 years later, with my own pub.
‘It opens next weekend if you fancy dropping in.’
Filming of latest season interrupted
Fans of the farming show are expecting to see the renovation process in the next season of Clarkson’s Farm.
However, filming of the new episodes has been repeatedly interrupted, according to MailOnline.
The media outlet reports that cameras keep having to stop rolling at The Windmill pub as some of the world’s biggest military transporters fly directly over on training exercises from Brize Norton, as Britain’s biggest RAF base is located just 1.5 miles away from the pub.
According to witnesses, Mr Clarkson’s crew had to stop filming scenes from the venue due to the aircraft noise on several occasions.
The celebrity was seen standing on a new decking area in the pub and pointing at the sky as he attempted to speak directly to the camera.

Renovation works
While announcing his latest venture, Mr Clarkson said that the newly purchased venue will be offering products from the Diddly Squat Farm as well as his own Hawkstone beer on draught.
In another post on social media, he asked his followers today: ‘We are attempting to go all British for the food at my pub. But we are struggling to find black pepper grown here. Can anyone help?’
Mr Clarkson also plans to “update the floor plans to include a bar on the first floor” and “include a temporary tent in a fixed location”.
