Pubs have had a hard time of it in the last couple of decades, with record numbers closing.
So, if you wanted to restore a local pub to its community then here are nine that are currently for sale on Rightmove.

1. The Olde Tavern
The Olde Tavern in Pontefract is on the market for £475,000. Rightmove said: "The Olde Tavern is a very traditional pub. It is located on a busy main road close to Pontefract town centre, the racecourse and famously King Richard III favourite castle. Surrounded by commerce and lots of industry, as well as densely populated residential communities, the pub enjoys a good level of trade throughout the day. The site also has tremendous development potential, given its size and location." Photo: s
