Contemporary Refurbishment Planned for Southport Local!
The Cheshire Lines is located in Southport town centre. The pub itself is situated next to the main shopping area of Southport as well as the Southport Market. This can be competition to the pub but also gives the pub fantastic footfall and trade. The surrounding area is densely populated, with over 17,000 adults living within a 20-minute walk. A well-finished refurbishment will transform the Cheshire Lines into a more modern, community pub.

Trading Area & Facilities

A well-finished refurbishment will transform the Cheshire Lines into a more modern, community pub. Inside, the pub will be redecorated throughout. We will add new lighting, furniture and bric-a-brac to liven up the pubs aesthetic. The toilets will also receive essential works to bring them in line with the pubs new appearance.

Externally, the refurbishment will include the addition of all-new signage and lighting. As a listed building, the pub won’t receive any transformational changes, but will have a ‘face-lift’ to give it fantastic kerb appeal. We will also add new outdoor furniture and festoon lighting.

For an in-depth look at the planned refurbishment please refer to the "Refurbishment Details" document found in the Downloads section.

Please be aware that all refurbishments are subject to final board approval which will be determined as part of the recruitment process.
