The Railway, in Lancing, has a brand-new ‘stunning’ look following works on the building, but has held onto its ‘beloved character and charm of a classic British pub’, according to operators Chris and Iryna Williams.
The husband-and-wife duo live in Lancing with their two children, and are involved with local groups and charities which they will be continuing to support through the pub.

"Iryna, the team and I want to make the Railway a hub for the whole Lancing community and look forward to inviting in new and old faces and families.
"There is so much going on, we hope to have some fun with you all and cannot wait to make some brilliant memories.”
The establishment, which is now part of the award-winning Craft Union Pub Company, has a new pool table and a darts board, as well as new HD TVs inside and outside in the new-look garden.
