A busy pub in Downend is set to close for up to a month as it undergoes a ‘six-figure’ renovation beginning next week.

The Horseshoe, on Downend Road, will close its doors on April 24 and expects to reopen to the public in late May. The pub is under the Greene King banner which hopes to make ‘significant improvements’ to the property’s interior and exterior.

Located on the A4017 / A432 junction, the pub has a striking frontage and a sizeable garden area. Upwards of £100,000 is set to be invested in improving the Horseshoe. More details are expected in the coming weeks on how this money will be spent.
