Customers at a Tonge Fold pub are enjoying its new surroundings after a £262,000 transformation.
The Black Horse on Bury Road reopened its doors on Friday, May 12, after it was given a new lease of life with extensive enhancements made to the interior, exterior and the garden.
Inside the pub, owned by Craft Union Pub Company, there are new fixtures and fittings, and the pubs interior has also been transformed into a modern and fresh space to relax with friends, family, and pets.
The pub interior even pays tribute to veterans, with a large photo hung on the wall, detailing the names of all the local heroes who lost their lives in the war.
The pub’s garden has also been given a revamp, ready for the long-awaited summer months and is a great place to enjoy a drink with friends and family under the sun.
And now pictures show the work complete with a fresh lick of paint on the outside, a new darts and snooker area, fresh and brand-new interior and a whole new look.
Each week, the Black Horse will have a variety of entertainment going on to bring all of Tonge Fold together for some fun.
Starting off the week, on a Monday is bingo, Wednesdays are quiz nights and to end the week on Friday nights the pub will showcase live music from artists, and Saturday nights are karaoke.
Sport is also a big part of the pub’s entertainment, with new and improved areas to watch live games regularly.
Familiar faces will remain behind the bar with landlords Michael and Amanda Regan being there for the last seven years.

The husband-and-wife duo have a lot of history with the pub.
It is the third site they have run together and is also the place they first met, over a game of pool.
Michael said: “The pub looks amazing after its investment, and we are completely in love with it! We are very excited about the future of the Black Horse and believe the investment has given the pub a new lease of life.
"Over our time at the pub, we have created some great relationships with those in the area, so it will be nice to share the Black Horse's new chapter with them too.”
The pub celebrated its reopening on the weekend from Friday, May 19 to Sunday, May 21.
The pub is open Sunday to Thursday 12pm to 12am, on Friday from 12pm to 2am and Saturday from 11am until 2am.
