THE new licensees of The Farthings, Rosewood Avenue, Roe Lee, Blackburn, are hoping to get the pub back on track as it opens its doors for the first time in over five months.
Former barmaid and local resident Amanda McGuire, along with husband Mick, has taken over the pub and have a range events and teams lined up to get people back to the venue.
The couple have organised a karaoke for Sunday nights and are hoping to have a DJ belting out the hits on Friday's.
With a range of lagers and bitters on tap, Amanda said there were plans to get a pool team going on a Monday night and that people should pop in if they are interested.
