People enjoying a pint after a game at the Unibol stadium could soon have a new place to enjoy their drink – if new plans are approved.

The owners of the Harvester pub, located on the Arena Approach near the ground of Bolton Wanderers, are seeking permission to create an external bar in the outdoor spot of its premises.

The drinking spot would be a Manhattan Pergola which would be six by nine metres in size.

The applicants have lodged the proposal with Bolton Council.

Pictures submitted as part of the application show the external bar would to in the outdoor area is with benches nearby and the potential drinking spot’s close proximity to the Uni Bol.

The bar would have a single door at the back and would be covered by a canopy.

The other existing landscaping would not be changed except for removing ivy to accommodate the new installation.

There would be no additions to the car park to accommodate the new bar.

The planning application shows Highways Engineering have been notifications of the plans and have raised no objections.
