The Plough at Allscott, west of Telford, went up for auction in June last year just eight months after the vacant pub had been refitted and reopened to the public.
A few weeks before the property had gone up for sale, the then-owners warned they would have to close if business did not pick up.
In September, the Stourbridge-based Furious Pub Company - which runs The Red Lion and The Swan in Amblecote - announced it had purchased The Plough.
Now, plans to extend the pub off the B4394 have been revealed, which the new owners hope will turn around its fortunes.
