A 31 year-old man has revealed that he had a near miss in a local Wetherspoons recently. A piece of the pub's ceiling landed on to his table as he returned to his table from the bar.
Sam Ireton left his table to order a drink in the Commercial Rooms when the ceiling collapsed onto his table. Sam, who works as a mental health support worker and also part-time for Deliveroo, had popped into the pub for a quick lunchtime drink last week.
He said: "I was doing a delivery job, so popped into the pub, put my bag down at a table a few metres away from the bar and went over to order a drink. As I was about to walk back to the table, a big bit of masonry fell from the ceiling onto the table and fully smashed it in two.
