A pub on the outskirts of Macclesfield has hit the market.

The Rising Sun on Congleton Road has appeared for sale on the property website Rightmove.

Priced at £750,000, the venue closed for good at the end of April, along with the Butley Ash on London Road.

A spokesperson for the Greene King pub chain said: "Following a period of team member consultation, we can confirm that the Butley Ash and Rising Sun have now closed.

"We are grateful to everyone who has supported us over the years, and we look forward to welcoming them into our other pubs in the surrounding area soon."
