The landlady of a town centre pub claims she could lose her home and her livelihood if the council's plans are followed through.
Angela Hindley has been at the helm of The Swan Hotel in St Helens town centre for 13 years, having sold her house to take over the pub and moving in upstairs with her son. The 54-year-old now fears she will lose her home and her job if St Helens Council's plans to demolish the pub are carried out.
She told the ECHO: "The council are pushing through a compulsory purchase order so they can demolish the pub as part of their "masterplan" for the town centre.
