Warwick's Wetherspoon has been granted permission to keep its outside seating for the next 12 months.

Warwick District Council has allowed the Thomas Lloyd pub to keep its pavement licence until next September.

New laws on pavement licences were brought into effect in the summer of 2020 to make it easier for businesses to apply for permission to put furniture outside during the pandemic.

According to the plans, the Market Place pub has been given permission to keep its 27 external tables and 108 chairs.

The application says the outside seating can be used from 9am to 11pm seven days per week.

The Market Place pub is named after Victorian philanthropist Thomas Lloyd who lived in Warwick for 35 years until his death in 1890.

The building is a former bank, owned by Lloyd's family. Having changed hands between various banks over the following century, it was turned into a pub in 1998, becoming Lloyds No.1 bar.
