'Eyesore' Wetherspoons sold after failed £3m development

A Merseyside JD Wetherspoons has sold for half a million pounds.

The Master Mariner in New Brighton had been the subject of a planned £3m revamp which included expanding into the adjoining empty Lacy’s Bar. The pub originally opened in 2013 on the site of the former RJs and the Playas Lounge nightclubs.

Earlier this month it was confirmed that it had been listed at auction with a guide price of £300,000 to £350,000. A spokesperson for Wetherspoons has confirmed that an exchange on the property has been made.
