THE chance to run two pubs in north Wiltshire is up for grabs.

The lease for The Mermaid, near Chippenham, is on the market for £99,500 while the Three Brewers in Corsham is going for £60,000.

The Mermaid, in Christian Malford, is built in the style of a Cotswold farmhouse and includes an open plan bar, dining room, seven bedrooms and a beer garden. The Three Brewers, in Priory Street, is run as a community pub but is currently only open for relatively short hours.

It includes a lounge bar, skittle alley, pool area and self-contained owners' home.
