A Market Harborough pub that was destroyed by a fire is back and better than ever - just over a year after the blaze.
The fire, ignited by an electrical fault, was fought by over 40 firefighters as flames tore through the Roebuck on Friday, September 6, 2019.
The owners of the Roebuck on Rockingham Road vowed to rebuild it 'bigger and better' than before.
And the Harborough Mail's photographer Andrew Carpenter was given a special preview of how the new-look pub looks now.
Here are his photos of the pub before its reopening on Monday (September 28).
