A landmark South Bristol pub WILL reopen after planners gave the go-ahead for a major renovation there.
The Cross Hands pub, on the corner of Bedminster Down Road and Bishopsworth Road, has been closed since before the covid pandemic and local residents feared it would never reopen - especially when a local firm known for its demolition work - The Wring Group - took on the site.
But The Wring Group applied for, and has now been granted, permission to refurbish and extend the pub, and create new guests rooms to restore the Cross Hands back to the traditional inn with accommodation.
