The fire has been put out and the main road through the village has reopened. The cause of the fire is thought to have been accidental, emergency services added. The fire has gutted the roof of the pub.
Mr Gurney told Nottinghamshire Live: "We are obviously devastated but relieved that there was no loss of life. We are so sorry that we will be unable to honour any bookings for the foreseeable future and sorry for any distress that the fire has caused to villagers. We will keep everyone updated on social media in the coming days and weeks."
Broad and Gurney launched the Cat and Wickets Pub Company in 2016 along with friend and experienced pub manager Dan Cramp. The pub was formerly known as The Golden Fleece, which had been closed for two years prior to the Cat and Wickets taking it on. It reopened as the Tap & Run gastropub in September 2018. The Cat and Wickets' debut pub was The Three Crowns in Wymeswold, which opened in August 2016. Broad has been playing in the Test series against New Zealand with the second test currently taking place at Trent Bridge.

Firefighters from Bosworth Fire Station rushed to the scene a large blaze at Newbold Heath yesterday. The fire was so large it could be seen from Merrylees and Botcheston.
Crews eventually decided to let the fire burn itself out as it was deemed unlikely to be of any danger and unlikely to spread any further. However, future inspections of the site will be made in the coming hours to monitor conditions, and should anything change, then firefighters may have to reassess.

They tweeted at 11.49pm yesterday (Thursday): "We have been in attendance this afternoon and into the evening at a large fire in Newbold Heath. The fire is being allowed to burn out with fire service re-inspections taking place to monitor conditions."
