Insolvency proceedings begin for company running Harefield Hall at Pateley Bridge
A meeting of creditors of Harefield Hall Ltd is to take place next week as the business faces the prospect of being wound-up.
Harefield Hall is a family-run guest house, restaurant and wedding venue popular with walkers and tourists. The building, set amongst 28 acres of woodland, once belonged to the Archbishop of York and is rumoured to have also belonged to Henry VIII.
The Gazette, a journal of public record, last week posted a notice by Elaine Little, a director of the company, announcing the virtual meeting of creditors on January 9.
The notice said the meeting had been called under section 100 of the Insolvency Act 1986, which allows for the appointment of a liquidator.
A meeting of shareholders prior to the creditors' meeting will consider passing a resolution for voluntary winding up of the company. The notice added:
Harefield Hall is situated off Ripon Road, just outside Pateley Bridge.

The Stray Ferret has called and emailed Harefield Hall seeking comment and clarification over whether it was still trading but not had a response.
