A pub that dates back to the 17th century has been forced to shut.
The Black Horse, on Liverpool Road, Warrington, is the town's oldest pub. However, recent signs of movement has meant it is "at risk" of collapse. It will be closed for two to three months so restructuring work can be carried out.
The pub was built in the early 1630s and is now a Grade II listed building. Plans to revamp the pub were given the green light earlier this year, but urgent work now needs to be brought forward in order to stabilise the building, reports CheshireLive.
