Ten new jobs have been created following a near-quarter million pound investment into a Yarm High Street pub.
The Ketton Ox is the oldest pub in Yarm, and it’s re-opened its doors today – where brand new stylish and modern surroundings are ready to greet its customers, following its £248,000 refurbishment.
A special reception, hosted by general manager Gill Bell and her team, was held to let guests have a sneak preview of the newly-refurbished place.
The pub, operated by the Stonegate Pub Company, dates back to the late 17th century and Ms Bell said the original features are still intact.
She said: “We have maintained the traditional feel to the pub with the refurbishment, taking care to enhance its original features such as its parquet flooring.”
Real ale enthusiasts will be pleased to know that The Ketton Ox, named after the famous bull of its name, will be expanding its range of beers, with the introduction of three additional hand pull pumps at the bar.
Both nationally and locally-sourced cask beers will be on offer for punters – from brewers such as Greene King and the Tyne and Wear based Jarrow Brewery.
Ms Bell, said: “Our regulars love the real ales. We will be introducing three guest beers each week as well as hosting regular real ale tasting and ‘Meet the Brewer’ nights.”
