A Braintree pub could reopen as a “sports bar” after it has sat empty for more than half a year.
Silkworm, in the town’s High Street, closed its doors in October after the firms running it went into administration.
SW91 Limited, which has a premises in Railway Street, Chelmsford, has applied for a premises licence for the pub.
The application states it is for a sports bar and restaurant, which will serve beers, wines and spirits, provide hot and cold food and show live or pre-recorded sport daily on multiple televisions.
It also states that pool tables and dart boards will be used in the venue and games could be watched by spectators.
