Wetherspoons announces plan to sell off more pubs across the country

JD Wetherspoons announced plans to sell seven more pubs - bringing total closures for the year to 39.

It comes after the company announced in September that it would sell off 32 of its venues. Now a spokesman confirmed that seven more would be sold off as of today (November 10).

The business is yet to announce which seven pubs will be closed as part of the 'commercial decision'. The spokesman also confirmed that the venues will continue to trade until a buyer for them has been found, the Mirror reports.

However, if no sale can be agreed upon, then the venues will stay open as normal Wetherspoons pubs. The closures come in the background of a warning from the pub chain that it could lose £30 million due to rising staff wages and repairs.

Here's a list of the 32 Wetherspoons pubs currently listed for sale:

  • Barnsley – Silkstone Inn
