A Lower Gornal pub has reopened under new management.

The Chapel House in Ruiton Street had been shut since the start of the year after former licensee James Stevens finished.

The Holden's pub reopened on Friday, January 16 under the new team of Brooke Coulter and Zach Williamson.

New hours are Monday to Thursday, 3pm to 10pm; Friday, 1pm to 12 midnight; Saturday, 12 noon to 12 midnight and Sunday, 12 noon to 10pm.

The pub, which will offer three real ales regularly, will continue to offer live music on Saturdays and will soon have Sky Sports.
