Scarborough Pub Changes Approved

Tuesday, 13 January 2026 18:30

By Anttoni James Numminen, Local Democracy Reporter

Alterations to the outside of the Cask and Keg pub in Scarborough have been approved by North Yorkshire Council.

Proposed alterations to the four-storey former Cask Inn in Cambridge Terrace have been given the green light, subject to conditions.

​​​The applicant, Merrydith Property, said the works would upgrade the building to provide “better quality residential accommodation within a building that has stood empty for a while”.

​​The works will involve changes to the rooflights of the property.

​​The Highway Authority has raised no objections to the proposed development, and no objections have been made by the environmental health team.

​A report by North Yorkshire Council states: “The proposed replacement is modest in scale and is confined to the existing roof slope, ensuring that the overall roof form of the building is preserved.

​“The use of a heritage style conservation rooflight, which is flush within the roof plane, is appropriate within the context of a conservation area.”

​At a meeting of Scarborough Town Council last month, members said they had no objections to the proposal.

​Officers described the development as being of “an acceptable design and appearance in accordance with the principles of design”.

​They added: “Given the limited scale of works, the sensitive choice of materials, and the use of a flush fitting rooflight, the development would preserve the character and appearance.”

​The scheme was approved on Monday, January 12, subject to conditions.
