These artist impressions are of a new destination pub and function space near Kirkby train station. 🍻
The pub would be situated on the land next to the car park at the train station. Plans for the site will help regenerate the west side of Kirkby by introducing new modern facilities and opportunities for business which will encourage more external investment into the town. The pub will provide much-needed outdoor seating areas in that part of town, as well as seating inside.
The design of the building reflects the industrial heritage of the site, celebrating the history of the railway and its workers, whilst creating a modern space that welcomes people into Kirkby.
The plans are just one of 16 projects being funded by our £62.6million Towns Fund. Other Towns Fund projects that have already been released include the boathouse at Kings Mill Reservoir, the Planetarium and Science Discovery Centre at Sherwood Observatory, redesign of Portland Square, and the Enterprising Ashfield project.
