Brewery that announced purchase of Shrewsbury pub off A49 days before lorry crashed into it speaks

Black Country Ales announced the acquisition of the Three Fishes pub in Bayston Hill just five days ago[1]. But at around 5.30am on Monday, a lorry crashed through a home on the A49 and right into the side of the pub[2]. The driver suffered a broken leg and had to be cut free.

Now, the Dudley-based pub chain, which already operates several other establishments in Shropshire including The Anvil in Shifnal and The Harp in Albrighton, has spoken out about the incident.

The Three Fishes pub was almost reduced to rubble after the crash
