A BARNSLEY pub which called time on July 7 in order to undergo a major refurbishment is set to reopen next month.
The Rose and Crown, in Barnsley Road, Darton has been given a £300,000 cash injection by owners Punch Taverns.
As a result of the investment, 12 new jobs will be created.
Punch Taverns' Partnership Development Manager, John Laite said: "There will be major work conducted throughout the pub with completely new redecoration which will give the pub a fresher look, complete with new TV screens showing Sky Sports."
We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
