I personally think the premises should either stay as a pub and hotel/bed and breakfast or be reopened as a hotel as there’s no hotels located in the town centre locality – Concerns about future of hotel (Keighley News, August 8).

I definitely don’t think it should be renovated and changed into shops on the ground floor and flats on the upper floors as there’s too many shops laying empty within the town centre. In experienced hands, with licensed doorstaff and vigilant serving staff, I’m sure the right management team could run an effective establishment.
