New bar opens in county town

New bar The Lantern’s Protection has opened in Shrewsbury town centre in a four-storey property in Mardol Head.

The Ward’s Firm Limited - a north Shropshire-based company - has completed the letting of 10 Mardol Head, which was marketed by Towler Shaw Roberts.

Director of The Ward’s Firm Limited Callum McCarthy said: “We are eager to bring The Lantern’s Protection to Shrewsbury, offering a new, vibrant space for the community.”

He said the new bar was a unique licensed venue, providing a fresh, modern twist on the classic hospitality experience, blending elements of a coffee shop with the warmth and charm of a traditional gathering place.

Josh Hyde, who handled the letting for TSR, said: “There was a high level of interest in the property when it became available. We are delighted to have completed a letting to The Ward’s Firm Limited and The Lantern’s Protection is another exciting addition to Shrewsbury town centre."
