The Postern Gate in Piccadilly, York, has shut today (Monday, August 10) with banners on the outside saying that it is closed for refurbishment.

The pub, which has a patio backing on to the River Foss, takes its name from the medieval tower called Fishergate Postern – which was previously on the banks of the river - and is just around the corner from Fishergate Bar.

On a banner on the outside of the pub, people are signposted to their nearest Wetherspoons which are The Punch Bowl in Blossom Street, The Giant Bellflower in Selby, and The Angel Inn in Wetherby.
"Just some minor updates to the pub being undertaken," said a spokesperson for Wetherspoons.
The Postern Gate is set to reopen on Saturday (August 15) – in time for the Ebor Festival at York Racecourse next Wednesday (August 19).
