The Bear Inn calls in administrators
The Birmingham office of accountancy firm PKF is seeking a buyer for Derbyshire's Bear Inn pub after the business entered administration.
Situated in the Derbyshire Dales, The Bear Inn consists of a bar, restaurant, hotel with 12 rooms and two small holiday cottages.
It went into administration in June this year.
PKF said the business will continue to trade as normal while a buyer is sought. Brian Hamblin, partner at the accountancy firm, said a sale would save about 20 jobs.
The venue, which turns over about £850,000 per year, also caters for weddings and other events for up to 80 people. It has traded as a pub since the 17th century.
Hamblin said: "A successful sale could save up to 20 jobs, as well as preserving a real piece of English history."
