CUSTOMERS at Oswestry's Wetherspoons-operated pub, The Wilfred Owen, will now be able to use toilets and enter the pub for access to outside areas.
Wetherspoons announced a further 44 more pubs are set to be reopen from Monday, resulting in 533 of the company’s 871 pubs now open.
From April 26 all Wetherspoon pubs, including those that opened on April 12, will be extending their opening times for an extra hour each day.
Customers will be able to enter the pubs to gain access to the outside area and also to use toilets.
Wetherspoon chief executive John Hutson said: “We are looking forward to opening the extra pubs in England as well as those in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
“We look forward to welcoming our customers and staff back to our pubs.”

In March, the popular pub chain published a list of pubs reopening on the date set out by the government for the first easing of lockdown restrictions, with the Willow Street premises not appearing.
The Wilfred Owen did not appear on the first list for an April 12 reopening; however, bosses confirmed they did reopen last week as part of the first stages of lockdown restrictions easing.
