A town centre venue has made a huge addition as a beer garden is set to open just in time for summer.

The large outside space at Connaught Hall in Attleborough has been converted from an overgrown patch to the town's newest place to enjoy a pint in the sun.

Jay Coppin, booking manager at Connaught Hall, said: "We have never really utilised the space before so we just thought, why not? It's always just been overgrown with weeds and grass.

"After we were used for a Covid centre we wanted to showcase that we're back open and we're not just here to jab you."
