The Castle Barge floating pub in Newark, Nottinghamshire (UK), is up for sale as the owner plans to retire after 43 years of running the venue.

The pub, which was converted from the Spillers grain barge, has become a popular part of Newark, offering beer, wine, soft drinks and food, including pizza, NottinghamshireLive reports.

The unique location and quirkiness of the pub attracted visitors due to its nautical characteristics and views of the historic walls of Newark Castle.
