EDITORS COMMENTS
The New Star manager, David GG McGuigan, stands proudly outside the pub he and his wife Margaret recently took over in Tile Hill, Coventry. This charming print captures a moment from 14th August 1987 when David made an unexpected discovery about their new establishment. Little did he know that the roof of the pub had become a sanctuary for around 200 bats, a protected species. As dusk settled over West Midlands each evening, these winged creatures would find solace in the cozy nooks of The New Star's rooftop. While this revelation may have posed challenges for some, David embraced it with open arms. He recognized the importance of preserving nature's delicate balance and went above and beyond to ensure their safety. With great care and consideration, David worked alongside local authorities to implement measures that would protect these nocturnal visitors without compromising the charm of his beloved pub. His dedication earned him admiration within both the community and conservation circles alike. This photograph serves as a testament to David GG McGuigan's commitment not only as a publican but also as a steward of wildlife preservation. It encapsulates an era where individuals like him were willing to go beyond their call of duty to safeguard our natural heritage. Courtesy: Coventry Telegraph Archive - Memory Lane Prints.
