It’s been a long time coming but the Colonel has arrived in town, with a brand new restaurant which has created 30 jobs for the area.

Work started on the American fast food chain eatery last August and it had been planned to open in March until lockdown was introduced.

Orders for the nation's favourite fried chicken are available for takeaway and delivery now.
