Okell’s Brewery pubs are to remain open on Monday, September 19.

Steven Taylor, Okell’s Inns managing director said: ‘Last week we decided to close our pub estate to respect the announcement of the passing of Queen Elizabeth II.

‘After listening to our public house teams, many have expressed strong wishes to remain open for the State Funeral this coming public holiday, to ensure that their patrons can commemorate the funeral together as a community.’
