FOUR firms have expressed an interest in buying a 100-year-old Gisburn firm which went into voluntary liquidation in November, last year.

Directors at administrators Beever and Struthers are managing the sale of agricultural and equine supplies business Lindley Pate.

Charles MacMillan, a partner at the firm, said: “We are currently in talks with four parties who have expressed an interest in the business and we expect to make an announcement soon.”
