Three Pigeons, Bolton

To find out more about this now closed pub a summary is included below, use the links to read more details and see photos of the pub. The Saga starts here - New Licence granted 17/12/12, originally due to reopen in 2015 to Henighans format with sport, live music and food upstairs, conversion work delayed and it remained the Three Pigeons. In 2015 it was planned to have an orangery and beer garden to front of pub for a good view of the daily traffic jams plus seven flats in the rear of the building. June 2017 update - work to start in August/September 2017 - oh no it hasn't! Latest February 2018 update - now a vague 2019, maybe or maybe not - well its 27/12/19 and guess what we're still waiting.... Perhaps Covid got in the way of progress and by May 2022 not a lot to add. Xmas 2022 and a vacant empty ground floor space is for lease at £25K per annum - but will suit a variety of retail uses, it's under offer in April 2025 and by May is showing as let! A year later and nothing seems to have happened yet.
