An iconic fish and chip shop in the centre of Northwich is to close its doors for the final time later this month.
Announcing the news on Facebook, the owners of The Seafarer said: “It is with much regret that the Seafarer Restaurant & Takeaway will cease trading.”
The Seafarer opened in April 1971 and has been run by its current owners since June 1975.

No reason was given for the closure, but the owners said it has been a pleasure to serve the town and surrounding area.
They thanked customers and staff for their support and wished the town well for the future.
