    The General Tarleton pub, on the outskirts of Knaresborough, is to be wound-up.

    According to a resolution posted on The Gazette, agreed by director Suzanne Topham, a meeting took place on September 30 on the premises in Ferrensby.

    At the meeting the owners agreed to a voluntary wind-up of the business.

    Leeds company Begbies Traynor was appointed as the joint liquidator of the company.

    Suzanne and John Topham have owned the gastropub since 2005. The venue had acquired a fine reputation for food but had not reopened since closing during lockdown.
