AN eyewitness has described the moment he saw a group of men run towards the fence and start fighting at the Dockle.
Harry Wardrop ,26, from West Swindon went to the Dockle Farmhouse in Stratton with some friends on Friday evening.
He said: “Everyone was just drinking, some lads started shouting and it just kicked off. None of my friends were involved but it was just shocking that something like that would happen in a pub.
“Everyone started to shout and scream and then loads of lads ran towards the fence. It was crazy really.”
A man was seen carrying a knife with a blade approximately 8 inches long.
Harry added: “I left right after that happened. It’s really the last thing you expect to see.”
“I don’t go there often. I went there that night because it is just a cheap pub.”
When asked if he would return to the pub, Harry said: “Not in a hurry.”
