Gareth Prince, Partner at Begbies Traynor, said:

“I can confirm that we have been appointed to assist the Directors of The Winery Ltd in placing the company into liquidation. Many bars and restaurants are facing pressure at the moment, and this iconic local restaurant will be missed by the community as well as the many customers that passed through its doors to be served by its talented team.

“We are working closely with the owners, the affected employees and creditors to support on the process of winding the company down. During that time, if customers have enquiries about deposits they have paid or vouchers they hold then they can get in touch through the dedicated email address winery.burton@btguk.com.”
