A community arts space in Coventry has reopened after being given a free use lease by the council.

LTB Showrooms (LTB) had occupied rooms over the Litten Tree since 2021, but when the pub closed in February it was forced to leave.

Coventry City Council is now allowing the space to be used by LTB until November, prior to the building being demolished to make way for new development.

Alan Denyer, who runs the venue along with other volunteers, said the venue had worked with 700 artists and musicians since 2021.

More than 15,000 people had visited the space in that time, he added.

Denyer said: "We’ve also now been able to include the ex-pub ground floor space too – which is really exciting as it gives us some great new exhibition areas, with disabled access."
