About this business
Established some 31 years ago and closed in 2020 following a bereavement and serious ill health, this mid-parade fish and chip shop sits in the heart of the vibrant market town of Barnoldswick. The shop is fully fitted, and a capable operator could re-establish it with relative ease. It is offered on a new 15-year lease at £12,000 per annum, which includes the shop and the three-bedroom accommodation above. A most interesting proposition and well worth viewing.
