Wetherspoons has decided to pull the plug on a £3m revamp of the Master Mariner and sell the pub.
The Master Mariner in New Brighton, Wirral, had been the subject of a £3 million revamp which included expanding into the adjoining Lacy’s Bar. Works were set to be completed in August 2022, but the "poor state" of Lacy's Bar presented significant hurdles to the revamp.
This lead to the building being demolished after an "indefinite" pause to review the project.
