COORS TO CLOSE TOWN MUSEUM
BURTON brewing giant Coors announced today that the town's 'number one
visitor attraction' will close at the end of June.
The Coors Visitor Centre is costing the company more than £1 million a
year
to keep open and is suffering from dwindling numbers, Coors said.
It cited a steady fall in profits - down to £40 million in the last
financial year - and said that the smoking ban and Alistair Darling's
'beer-ba****ng budget' last week had not helped.
There are no firm plans for the Horninglow Road site, but the company
confirmed that historical artefacts may be spread around other company
sites, and that the much-loved ****re horses will be sold.
