It’s estimated that, on average, restaurants use around 2.5 times more energy per square foot than other commercial buildings. You wouldn’t want to part with cash for your new equipment to find out you can’t afford to run it!

The Greyhound Inn, situated in Cromford, Matlock, is a venue steeped in history. Built by Richard Arkwright in 1778, the venue was originally designed to encourage visitors, in particular, businessmen, to the nearby cotton mills. 2017 marks a new chapter for the venue, having recently re-opened to the public under new management; Paul and Tina Waddingham.
