Description

A vacant former public house in a prominent roadside position in Yorkshire, with a substantial footprint, original architectural character and four bedrooms. The building is described as requiring full refurbishment and may suit a redevelopment or repurposing project, subject to the necessary planning and other checks. The available description identifies potential for residential, commercial or mixed-use schemes; the building’s condition and suitability for any proposed use should be assessed before proceeding.

WHOTS analysis

Our WHOTS verdict

An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.

47out of 100
Grade ELow opportunity

Confidence: LOW

This derelict former pub offers a distinctive project: a stone-faced building with prominent roadside frontage, generous open former pub rooms and an enclosed rear area. The commercial fit-out, worn or incomplete floors and visible wall damage make this a heavy full-gut project, with scope to rethink the interior for a residential, commercial or mixed-use use, subject to planning and feasibility.

At £130,000, the headline price alone does not establish whether it is good value: floor area is missing, so comparison with local £/sqf cannot yet be judged. The overall WHOTS score is 47/100 (grade E), reflecting the limited condition score and unresolved value and residual-value assessment, rather than a confirmed expensive price.

Key opportunities

  • Rework the large former pub rooms and bar areas around a feasible residential, commercial or mixed-use scheme, subject to planning.
  • Retain and make a feature of the stone frontage and original character while reshaping the interior.
  • Clear and improve the enclosed paved rear area as part of a wider site and layout plan.

Key risks

  • Stripped, worn and incomplete finishes across the visible interiors point to a heavy full-interior rebuild; plan for a substantial programme rather than a cosmetic refresh.
  • Visible wall damage and incomplete floor covering need investigation as the building is assessed and the full scope is established.
