A DERELICT pub is to be turned into a new Co-op convenience store by the firm behind the town centre’s Gateway Plaza development, if plans submitted to Barnsley Council are approved.
The Brook Group is behind the plans for the Bush Inn at Kingstone. Jason Brook told the Chronicle a deal had been agreed with the Co-op and said if planning permission is granted the shop could be open early next year.
“It is great to get something moving with what’s become a bit of an eyesore over the years,” said Jason, who believes business confidence in Barnsley is growing.  Taken from the Barnsley Chronicle.
