sign on the doors saying its closed due to unforseen circumstances.

Their Facebook page says:
"Due to unforeseen circumstances the pub will be temporarily closed until further notice. This is likely to last all of this weekend and possibly into next week. A further update will be made in the coming days. Please note The Sportman is not closed indefinitely, we hope for normal services to resume in a few days."

They are intending to reopen on Saturday lunchtime.

Well after all this time closed, seems whoever owns the Sportsman is looking for someone to take on the lease.

It’s a good location with a great view across the Goyt Valley. It will need some investment, but if whoever takes it on has the resources to do that, and can find a really good chef, it could be a success, IMHO.

Agreed! It was a favourite walking destination of ours for a long time. Quality cask ale like Sue and Joe used to keep will be needed as well as the good food.
Look forward to a return as soon as someone makes a go of it and wish them all the best.

Web site isn't that easy to follow but looks like no food until February 2023. Hope the beer is good!

I thought it was just me, the website is not good.

I don't know just how much publicity there was for the opening concert by Martin Carthy: I passed a couple of times in the preceding week and didn't notice any signs announcing the opening. I wish that I had known about it. Martin Carthy is a folk music legend who I saw at the big folk music festivals and at the Free Trade Hall in the 1970s. I met someone who attended and said that there was to be a regular folk night/concert. Does anyone else know any details? I have checked the web site for the new venue but not a lot can be gleaned from that.

I found out by accident that Martin was playing a few weeks before the opening and by then it had sold out. Sure it was good but I don't know how it went!
