A pub which is believed to date back to the 18th century could be saved after going up for sale for almost £300,000.
The Greyhound Inn in Ormskirk went on the market for offers over £295,500 last May. According to Lancs Live, a 'private individual' who wants to keep the pub is said to have now stepped in with an offer.
Licensee Kevin Kirtland has been at the helm of The Greyhound with partner Kelvin Tomlinson for almost eight years. He said Admiral Taverns acquired the Aughton Street family pub, which also has rooms to let, earlier this year and took the decision to place it on the market straight away, prompting lots of viewings.
