Uncertain future for General Tarleton
There is still no news about whether the pub will reopen its doors following the coronavirus pandemic.
The fate of the General Tarleton is unclear as it shows no sign of reopening after being closed for five months.
Award-winning chef John Topham and his wife Claire have shared full ownership of the hotel and eatery in Ferrensby since 2005, according to information on the Companies House website.
Over the past 15 years the couple have built a reputation for serving quality food.

In 2016, the couple also gained a stake in the Alice Hawthorn, a country inn in Nun Monkton.
The Alice Hawthorn is managed by the Tophams and in 2017 it was named the Yorkshire Life Dining Pub of the Year.
The Alice Hawthorn has reopened since the coronavirus lockdown but the General Tarleton remains closed.
The Stray Ferret contacted the Alice Hawthorn yesterday to inquire about the future of the business but it declined to comment.
