Lower Halling Community Pub Reopens Following Transformational Refurbishment

Popular community pub, the Five Bells on 126 High Street in Lower Halling, officially reopened on Saturday 7th February following a transformational combined investment of £183,000 from experienced licensee Lloyd Slythe and community pub company Admiral Taverns.

This refurbishment will breathe a new lease of life into the Five Bells to elevate and modernise the overall look and feel of the pub – whilst still retaining its original, characterful features such as the open fireplace. The renovation will enable the licensee to further cement it as the go-to community hub for local residents.

Passionate licensee, Lloyd Slythe brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise to the pub having over 20 years of hospitality experience. Going forward the licensee is committed to creating a family and dog-friendly hub that brings people together and supports all aspects of community life.

Lloyd Slythe, licensee at the Five Bells, commented: “I’m absolutely thrilled with the results of this fantastic investment so far. I look forward to welcoming old and new customers through the doors this week.

I have loved every minute of my time at the Five Bells so far and I would like to thank everyone, from our family and friends to our customers and of course the team at Admiral Taverns, for all their ongoing support so far. I look forward to everything the future holds for this terrific community pub!”

Paul Gornall, Business Development Manager at Admiral Taverns, added: “Lloyd has brought a real passion and dedication to the pub since taking it over and he has built a strong community focused local that residents enjoy.

On behalf of myself and everyone at Admiral Taverns, I wish Lloyd and the entire team at The Five Bells the best of luck in the future.”
