It's not a pub company, it's Scottish and Newcastle brewery - I have been wondering why they haven't put temp management in, as they did before the current landlord took over.
Because it costs more to trade a pub like this that leaving it closed. I think this pub has closed it's doors for the last time. As soon as an available pub is screened, the to let boards are put up by the screeners. Not the case with this pub, it will be sold off to a developer and levelled.
