A pub chain has put dozens of its sites across the UK up for sale.

Marston’s Brewery, which has more than 1,400 pubs in its portfolio, has put 61 of its sites on the market because it wants to “maximise returns” by focusing on its core venues.

Sites up for sale include pubs in the Midlands, Yorkshire, Sussex and Wales and the sale is being managed by commercial real estate agency Christie & Co.
