Jeremy Clarkson issues plea for help as £1m pub gets ready to open

Jeremy Clarkson announced his Cotswolds pub is set to open very soon

Jeremy Clarkson has asked for urgent help from the British public as he gets ready to open his £1 million pub in less than two weeks' time.

The former Top Gear presenter revealed in a post about A-Level results that his pub is going to be open to the public incredibly soon. This was, of course, alongside telling us what results he got for his A-Levels.

The pub is based at Burford in the Cotswold and around 20 minutes from Diddly Squat Farm, making it an ideal location for the Who Wants To Be A Millionaire presenter to expand his business ventures in the area.

Critically for the 64-year-old, it'll be another avenue for him to sell produce made from his 1,000 acres of farmland; half of which is used to grow crops and the other to forage other products such as berries for his jams and make honey from his beehives.

With the pub - called The Windmill - set to open its doors on the August bank holiday weekend (24 to 26 August), Clarkson is now in a race against time to secure one final product before it opens its doors.

With a focus on British farming and British products in general, Clarkson has managed to secure everything he needs bar one thing.

He posted on X: "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?"

Followers praised Clarkson's dedication to keeping business in the UK, with one writing: "A well worthy cause, good luck with it.

"A truly all 'British' menu, superb, because I don't think there are that many pubs that genuinely do that."

Another added: "You've gotta love this guy. Even the pepper must be home grown in his pub.

"I'm definitely taking my lovely missus for a drink and a meal there next time see fancies a wee day out that's only a few hours away."

The plea to his fanbase comes as filming for season four of Clarkson's Farm has been forced to stop on numerous occasions due to an ongoing issue miles from where the pub is based.

With the pub in the flight path for planes arriving and leaving RAF Brize Norton - the largest airbase in the UK - filming has been regularly stopped due to the noise of the huge military planes flying above.

Back in July, Clarkson opened the pub early for a private function, coinciding with the Euro 2024 final (the less said about that the better).

Showing off the bar area, there were pristine pumps for all varieties of Hawkstone lager and cider that he makes using farm produce.
