These are the Preston pubs that have shut due to Tier 3 lockdown

Many of Preston's favourite pubs have had to shut their doors for the foreseeable future after Lancashire entered Tier 3 lockdown on Friday (October 16).

Since the new restrictions came into force, more than a dozen pubs have been forced to close, with no indication from the Government on when they might be allowed to reopen.

Popular city centre venues such as Hogarths and The Black Horse have shut until further notice, whilst students bars and micro-pubs have also been hit hard by the restrictions.

The tough new measures include a complete ban on households mixing inside venues and the mandatory closure of all pubs that cannot provide a 'substantial' food service.

Lancashire’s tier-three restrictions are due to be reviewed after 28-days.
