Contractors are making great progress converting a well known Ormskirk pub for a new life.

Around £1 million is being spent on the new look Buck i'th Vine whose opening date has yet to be confirmed - and it's thought a well known luxury restaurant from the Wirral has expressed an interest in the new look Buck.

Back in October, owners Mitty Group announced: 'Mitty Group are excited to announce the completion of the Buck i'th Vine pub and barn in the historic market town of Ormskirk.

Only 10 minutes from Edge Hill University. Planning is in place for 15 student bedrooms and just under 4000 sq ft of commercial space to the ground floor.'
