A LANDLORD, believed to be the youngest in the country, has called time on his role at a Rawtenstall bar.
Thomas O’Toole, 21, said he was ‘gutted’ after quitting Madisons Wine Bar in Burnley Road on Monday evening.
Nine members of part-time bar staff could also lose their jobs as a result of the decision.
Owners Punch Taverns say a new licensee has been found but there is no guarantee the current staff will be kept on.

ONE of the valley’s most popular weekend venues is set to be given a new lease of life - by former staff.
Madisons in Burnley Road, Rawtenstall, is set for a revival this Friday as it reopens after several weeks’ absence.
And partners in H2Inns are hoping that the relaunch will bring back the glory days to the sprawling nightspot.
Each of the bosses have previously either worked behind the bar at Madison’s or been in charge of their own hostelries elsewhere in Rossendale and surrounding areas.
