Five people were found guilty of illegally flattening the 18th century pub
The owners of a historic Lancashire pub 'haunted' by a notorious highwayman have been found guilty of unlawfully demolishing the derelict building after it was knocked down last year.
The defence representing Andrew Donelan, 60, Nicola Donelan, 58, Rebecca Donelan, 28, David Cotterell, 57, and Brian Ingleby, 69, tried to argue that the building needed to be flattened due to structural issues. But a key witness, construction firm boss Gez Pegram, told the jury that there had been “no need” to demolish the pub, the Daily Star reports.
