The Flying Childers, at Kirby Bellars, closes on Monday for the work including a new snug with Chesterfield seating, new wall panelling and bespoke tiling in the bar plus updates to the outside dining area.

It is hoped the new look of the Marstons pub, which is named after an iconic undefeated 18th century thoroughbred racehorse, will attract new customers for all occasions, from casual lunches to special celebrations.
