Pub Overview Substantial Investment for Leyland Local Following a full internal and external refurbishment, The Wheatsheaf will be transformed into a fantastic community pub. Major investment will create a fabulous suburban pub that will cater to the local population. There will be multiple zoned areas which will all undergo refurbishment, the bar will be remodelled and a new pool room will be introduced to cater to the strong sports following the pub already has. In addition, a fantastic external redecoration will enhance the pub’s kerb appeal with new signage and lighting. Excellent Location The Wheatsheaf is located in Leyland. Leyland is a town in South Ribble, Lancashire, six miles south of Preston. The area has limited competition, there is only 1 other pub within a 10-minute walk of the Wheatsheaf and is the closest pub to all the 200 new houses in a new development to the north of Leyland. Huge Potential The transformed Wheatsheaf will feature all the main sports attractions of Sky & BT plus regular events and live entertainment. The pub will attract a lot of the local wet trade, given that it is just a short walk from nearby housing developments and it will be the go-to pub to catch up over a drink. We would like to see you bring your own ideas and flair to make the most of this great opportunity. The stunning new look at The Wheatsheaf will attract a broad demographic from local customer groups to sports fans looking for a nice pub to watch live games & events. The Wheatsheaf has the potential to be THE community pub in Leyland with competitively priced draught lagers, beers and ciders with the best brands on the market. Non-drinkers will enjoy a great range of soft drinks and a simple coffee offer. All guests will be kept entertained through live sports with Sky & BT, pool, darts, dominoes as well as quizzes, charity fundraisers and live entertainment.
