Plans for micropub at Knaresborough train station
A new micropub could soon open at Knaresborough's train station to serve up real ale and gin.
The Track and Sleeper would take over a couple of vacant units at the station if the plans submitted to Harrogate Borough Council are approved.
Housed in a Grade II listed building dating back to 1865, there will be much interest in any redevelopment plans. The council document describes the alterations for the micropub as "sympathetic to both the external and internal aspects of the building".

Knaresborough Civic Society wrote in support of the plans but raised concerns about drinking and smoking on the platform. It also requested that the pub restores the existing fireplace and uses it as an open fire, something the society said was more in keeping with the building.
The deadline for comments on the application is August 12. Find the plans on the Harrogate Borough Council website.
