New life will be breathed into a pub that has been closed for several years. The White Lion in Beeston has fallen into disrepair and at one time metal shutters went up at the windows.
But soon, pints will be poured once again after a takeover by a Nottinghamshire-based company known for its award-winning cask ales. Lincoln Green Brewing Company will be running the pub on the corner of Middle Street and Station Road.
Following a facelift, the pub will reopen its doors in July. It will be run as a joint venture by owners Star Pubs & Bars and the Hucknall-based brewery. It's the second recent acquisition for Lincoln Green, which took over the operation of the Mill & Brook pub in Long Eaton earlier this year.
