A celebration of a landlord's career in Barrow took place as he prepared to leave his longtime job.

David Young was the manager at the Ship Inn on Yarlside Road with a party taking place on Saturday.

Visitors and patrons of the establishment crammed into the pub to give speeches and commemorate his work.

On the night, Mr Young said: "Thanks very much for turning up and letting me pull a few drinks."

People from the community used the opportunity to congratulate Mr Young and also thank him for the help he has provided.

"I've been coming here for quite a while now and we have been blessed by Dave because he has looked after us all," one patron said.

Another added: "You've been like a father figure to me, introducing me to the world of business and teaching me how to be more of a man."

A commemorative video of the night was put together by Nicos Nicholaides and can be found here.
