Pub chain applies for permission to refurbish and expand pub that's been empty since Covid
Black Country Ales has submitted plans to refurbish and extend a disused pub in Shifnal.
The pub company, which operates around 50 pubs across the region, has applied to Shropshire Council for permission to carry out work to the White Hart in Shifnal.
The company already owns The Anvil in the town, and added The White Hart to its portfolio earlier this year.
The pub has been closed since the start of the coronavirus pandemic.
Black Country Ales has now submitted an application to Shropshire Council for planning permission and listed building consent.
The proposals include resurfacing the car park, and creating a side beer patio, which the existing outbuilding will be insulated and converted into two letting bedrooms.
