A Black Country pub is set to reopen its doors this month after a gleaming £230,000 revamp. The County on Walsall Street in Willenhall will throw open its doors on Friday, June 23, having undergone a complete transformation inside.
There will be brand-new furniture, floor and soft furnishing throughout. The pub’s front and back bars have been revamped and there is a new pool and darts area inside its function room, complete with a brand-new sound system.
Meanwhile, there is new-signage, lighting and furniture in the pub’s garden, which has also been transformed. On the opening night next week, there will be a live DJ and on Saturday there will be karaoke and live music from artist, Jo Safina.

The County will be offering a wide range of drinks offers. This includes Wine Wednesday where customers can get £2 off a bottle, Fizz Friday offering customers a bottle of fizz for £10, along with cocktails, bottle and shot deals throughout the week.
David Robins, manager of the pub, said: “The pub looks fantastic, and I can’t believe the transformation. I’m really excited to get behind the bar, welcome back all the customers and support the local community.
“I will be starting off by collecting food for a local food bank and donations to get a defibrillator installed. Pubs are the hub of their community, and I can’t wait to start this new adventure.”
There will also be Sky Sports, BT Sports and Horse Racing on show, alongside hosting a pool and darts team. Customers can expect to enjoy frequent entertainment such as quiz nights and karaoke, as well as a regular schedule of charity events to support local causes. David’s first aim is to raise money to install a lifesaving defibrillator at the County, as well as a stab wound kit.
Matthew Gurney, operations director for Proper Pubs, said: “I’m really excited about the opening of the County! The team have worked hard on the refurbishment, and we’re just finalising the finishing touches, ready to open in just a couple of weeks’ time.
“On behalf of the Proper Pubs team, we would like to wish our community hero, David, every inch of success for the future in making The County a fantastic hub of the community”.
Proper Pubs is always supporting its communities through an array of events and charity fundraising initiatives, from Easter Egg collections to local foodbank donations and charity walks. Proper Pubs recently installed its 85th defibrillator across its estate with the help of its locals through hosting different fundraising events.
