A Sedgley pub is to offer real ale when it re-opens as an Indian bar and grill. The Crown in High Street has been closed since August 31.

It was sold by Marston's to Walsall-based Gurdeep Singh. The pub is expected to open as The Crown Bar and Restaurant on September 21.

It will then be offering two real ales in the bar. Ginni Singh from Willenhall will be running it. He previously ran The Tamworth Arms in Tamworth, which he sold in November.
