LICENSEES of a Kidderminster pub are to mark £35,000 of refurbishments with a garden party and treasure hunt.

The Waggon and Horses, at Ismere, run by Robert and Patricia Isaacs, is holding its outdoor event on Saturday.

Among improvements made to the Union Pub Company-owned site are the additions of a two-acre football pitch and baseball nets to the children's play zone. A sandstone patio area has been created, enclosed by an ornamental fence.

Low level spotlighting will also be added and landscaping and planting will be carried out.
