Residential development proposed for former Sheffield pub site

A planning application has been submitted to build 39 residential units on the site of the former Ye Old Harrow pub in Sheffield, near Park Square. The proposal includes 37 one-bedroom flats and two two-bedroom apartments. 

The pub closed in 2008 and suffered fire damage in 2019. The existing structure is considered derelict and will be demolished to allow construction.

The site previously received approval for a seven-storey block with 57 apartments, but the new application reduces the scale to comply with fire safety and building regulations. Sheffield Council planning officers aim to reach a decision by 9 December.
