A 17th century Cheshire pub rumoured to be haunted has been forced to close its doors as the old building is at risk of collapse. Cheshire's The Black Horse on Liverpool Road, is likely to be closed for up to three months while extensive restructuring work is carried out.
The property has shown signs of recent movement and is 'at risk' of collapse. The pub dates, which dates back to the early 1630s, is a Grade II listed building and there have been reports of several ghostly goings-on inside, Cheshire Live reported.
Plans to revamp the pub, in Warrington, were first given the green light earlier this year, but urgent work now needs to be brought forward in order to stabilise the building. Landlady Rebecca Green only took over the pub in May.
