The Troll Cart on Regent Road has seen the start of a £3.5m project that will see a 22 hotel added above it, its bar area given a fresh new look and a spacious rear garden added.

Wetherspoon spokesman Eddie Gershon said: 'We are delighted work has started on the new-look pub and creation of the 22-bedroom hotel.

'We believe the £3.55m project will result in a wonderful looking pub and first-class hotel.'

For the work the Troll Cart will close on August 13 and it is due to re-open on December 5 as a bar and hotel.

The plans were approved by the borough council in December and they will see an adjoining one-storey building demolished.

JD Wetherspoon also hopes to open the William Adams pub in Gorleston in November.
