    Groundworks are underway at a Ripon development site where a famous former city pub will be converted into flats.

    In October 2021 Harrogate Borough Council granted planning permission to Leeds-based NRG Homes (Yorkshire) Ltd. to convert the Ship Inn on Bondgate into five two-bedroom flats.

    The new development will also include four terraced houses,  a detached dwelling and 14 parking spaces.

    The Ship Inn closed in 2020 and while vacant the site was the scene of a number of incidents of violent and anti-social behaviour.

    At the time of submitting the planning application NRG, said:

    “The site is now better suited for residential use, which help bring a more appropriate residential feel for the community, limited to scale and type which does not cause nuisance.
    “The provision of new residents will potentially have some benefit to local enterprises and will add to and consolidate the general activity of Ripon.”
