Lease A Pub In Preston – The Black Horse Hotel Is Available !
The Black Horse is an imposing three storey detached pub situated in the heart of the affluent village of Gregson Lane which is approximately five miles South East of Preston and around two and a half miles East of the larger village of Bamber Bridge. Situated in the constituency of South Ribble, Gregson Lane has a population of around 1,500 residents but the pub can draw upon rural housing in the surrounding area as well of which there are many. The village’s household demographic is classed as ‘comfortable communities’ and ‘affluent achievers’ and has a higher proportion of middle to older generation with a greater disposable income than the UK average. The Black Horse takes pride of place as the only pub in the village with the only competition being a social club called Net’s Bar across the road.
Pub Layout
Customers can enter via the main double doors at the front of the pub or via the side entrance coming from the ten spaced car park and beer garden to the left of the pub. Customers from the front entrance are welcomed by a central bar stocking a great selection of choice wines, quality spirits, continental and craft beers and lagers and two fine cask ales on rotation. To the left hand side the lounge area consists of a range of fixed and loose seating and then steps up to the rear of the trade area provide a raised seating area, currently used to provide room for a darts throw. This is also where customers can exit to the car park and the side beer garden, providing enough seating for approximately 40 customers, but there are considerations to invest in the beer garden to increase seating to nearer 80. To the right-hand side of the pub is the pool table surrounded by fixed seating and again to the rear there is further raised seating. The pub currently has around 50 covers but with the right licensee and an investment this could be increased to around 80 covers. There is a fully kitted out and compliant trade kitchen to the rear left hand-side of the pub, capable of serving the capacity of the trade area
