Popular Greater Manchester pub reopens following six-figure refurbishment

A Greater Manchester pub has reopened following an extensive makeover, marking the start of a new chapter for the community venue.

The Jolly Hatters in Denton in Tameside closed during September to undertake the refurbishment with the team working hard behind the scenes on renovating the beloved pub.
