A pub has announced it will be changing its name after a takeover was completed earlier this year. The White Lion in Brinsley will now be called The Lion By Oliver's after being taken over by Oliver's Bar and Kitchen in nearby Eastwood.
The Lion, which is located in Hall Lane, announced the news to customers on its Facebook page on Friday night, April 8. They say more information will be shared in the coming weeks on what the pub will look like, however, they are looking to give it a more family-orientated approach. A lot of renovations are currently taking place at the venue.
The Lion said in a statement: "We hear the drums of Brinsley are beating and that the rumours are spreading so we are here to put your minds at rest! As of January this year The White Lion has been taken over by Oliver's and will be changed to "The Lion By Oliver's"!
