The Grade II listed Herbert Arms sits at the centre of the village of Chirbury, close to the border with Powys.

Having recently undergone extensive renovations to the tune of around £250,000 - the pub is now in need of someone to run it.

Named for the Barons Herbert of Chirbury, historically, the building was a coaching inn, sometimes called the Herbert Arms Hotel (though it no longer is a hotel).

The pub has recently had around £250k of investment. Photo: Right Move/Sidney Phillips

Built in the 18th century in red brick (painted white) it was originally called The Cross.

The Herbert Arms is currently closed and requires licensing by the new tenant.

The owners are looking for tenants "with proven track record" to serve the local and surrounding community.
