Historic Lincoln pub put up for sale

The Jolly Brewer dates back to the 1800s

A Lincoln pub dating back to the 1800s has been put up for sale.

The Jolly Brewer, on Broadgate, is a favourite among locals but is now looking for a new owner.

The freehold has been listed online asking for offers in the region of £395,000, sparking some fears about its future.

Mark Siddy has run The Jolly Brewer for the past six years and told a reporter from The Lincolnite that he hopes it can stay as a pub.

The current tenant’s lease is coming to an end in June, when he moves back to Nottingham, so it’s unclear if the business will continue with a new tenant.

Punters have rated The Jolly Brewer very highly on the TripAdvisor website and described it as a “great little pub.”
