Hurstwood signs nightclub operator

Vogue Bars has agreed a deal with Hurstwood to lease a 6,000 sq ft retail unit at 23-27 Bacup Road in Rawtenstall town centre.

The former furniture shop will become a new late night venue for the town. Sarah Boddy from Vogue Bars said: "We picked the unit due to its size and location close to town centre taxi ranks and the bus station but away from residential areas. It's going to be a late night venue, primarily open Friday and Saturday nights from 7pm to 4am, with live music, bands and a DJ later on."

Hurstwood's adjoining 2,000 sq ft retail unit is still available and suitable for a variety of uses including restaurant and bar. The building is located in a prominent position in the centre of Rawtenstall near to established businesses like Boots and Asda. It is also close to the local bus interchange and free car parking.
