A longstanding Indian and Bangladeshi restaurant in Harrogate has closed and could be converted into a pub.
The Ali Raj, on Cheltenham Crescent, was the first Bangladeshi restaurant in town when it opened more than 35 years ago.
After a couple of tough years for the hospitality industry, restaurant owner Abdul Rashid, who took over the business from its original owners, decided to close.
Mr Rashid announced the news on the Ali Raj Facebook page, saying it was the "end of an era".
The Stray Ferret tried to contact Mr Rashid for comment but did not receive a reply by the time of publication.
