Burbage buildings [1]
Number 1 Stibb Green was formerly The Three Horseshoes public house. Built in the 19th century of brick under a thatch roof. Closed in 2017, the building has had planning permission for conversion to housing refused and there is a local campaign to make it into a community pub.
Burbage is a village in the Vale of Pewsey, Wiltshire, it lies about 5½ miles southeast of Marlborough and some 15½ miles west of Newbury. The narrow village High Street was the main north to south road from Marlborough to Andover (A346) until a bypass was built to the west in 1991. Settlement can be traced back to the Neolithic period, and Bronze Age artefacts have been found. Burbage is now essentially a commuter village.
