The Woodman is set to reopen as a Peaky Blinders themed pub.

The team at the Woodman, on Wakelams Fold, has revealed to the Express & Star that they will soon reopen as a Peaky Blinders-themed venue after being closed since March.

The pub closed its doors in March this year to undergo renovations after changing hands. The new licensee revealed the alehouse will now reopen as a Peaky Blinders-themed pub.

Rebekah New, the new licensee of The Woodman, said: "It's just been one of those really. It's been a longer delay than we expected, but it's just one of those things that has to happen.

"A lot of money has been put into this to give the pub a fresh new look and we are giving it a brand new Peaky Blinders theme."
