A historic venue is to shut for at least 10 weeks after engineers raised safety concerns over the building's chimneys.

Beaumanor Hall near Loughborough, Leicestershire, is used for a variety of events and it has been confirmed wedding ceremonies and receptions will be affected by the closure.

The main building, which dates back to the 1840s, is the only part of the site to close, with school and outdoor residential stays still set to take place.

The hall has hired a marquee in the grounds for wedding ceremonies and said it was "looking at alternative venues for couples with wedding receptions".

Richard Hunt, Head of Catering and Hospitality spoke to 麻豆社 Leicester's Ady Dayman.
