It came about that we spotted it was shutting up shop and the old tenants were moving out. We already had a relationship with the pub company so we gave them a call and found out the availability of it.
Mr Neale added: "It needs the support of the local community more than anything. The guys did a great job of putting a refurb in and it looks great so there is not much cosmetics-wise that needs to go into it. It just needs a little bit of targeting to the right consumer. Turning it into more of a cask ale pub and taking it back to its heritage will work, but it needs the support of Beeston.
