Preston pub that suddenly closed hits the market - here's how much for
This pub even has it’s own bowling green.
Weeks after it’s sudden closure, a Preston pub has gone on the market.
The Post reported at the end of April that the Roebuck Inn, in Garstang Road, Bilsborrow, had closed its doors permanently.
Staff took to social media to make an emotional announcement, thanking customers and looking forward to “bigger and better things”.
They said: “We never imagined having to say goodbye to Bilsborrow and for this chapter to end. The Roebuck has become a place to make memories, friends and build a community that will be massively missed. We would like to thank each and every customer over the years for their support and sharing special moments with us. Every guests loyalty and kindness means the world to us.”
A spokesman for owners Greene King said: “Following a period of team member consultation, we can confirm that the Roebuck has now closed. We are grateful to everyone who has supported the Roebuck over the years, and we look forward to welcoming them into our other pubs in the local area soon.”
