Harrogate pub set to rebrand
The Swan on Devonshire Place in Harrogate is to be rebranded by new owners.
The Harrogate pub will reopen as The Mucky Duck, under the ownership of Appetite for Life Ltd.
The company also run SO! bars in Harrogate, Knaresborough and Ripon, the Devonshire Tap House in Harrogate and Tap On Tower Street in Harrogate.
The High Harrogate venue was previously owned by Market Town Taverns, a Harrogate company which operates a chain of pubs in Yorkshire and north-west England.
An application for a pavement licence has been submitted to North Yorkshire Council by Robert Thompson, who is named as the licensee of Appetite for Life Ltd on Companies House. He and Alison Thompson are the new owners of the venue.
The application, which was submitted at the start of the month, is for 'the ability to place several tables and chairs outside the front of the premises for the sale of food, drinks and alcohol'.
The new signage is set to go up this week with the pub expected to open in May, although there is no confirmed date at this time.
