The White Horse in Empingham, an Ei Publican Partnerships pub, has closed its doors

A village pub has shut its doors for the time being - but residents are re-assured it will open again.

The White Horse in Empingham, which is part of the Ei Publican Partnerships chain, closed earlier this year.

A spokesman for Ei Publican Partnerships said: “We can confirm that The White Horse in Empingham is currently closed, however we would like to re-assure the local community that we plan to reopen the pub as soon as possible.”
