Well this is going to get interesting, both Travellers Rest and Darcy's have been knocked down.

Wetherspoons applied to knock it down and redvelop but got refused, they have two other applications (under 3-5 Union Terrace) to develop create links into this building.

As demolition does not need planning approval and the building isn't listed, they do not need planning permission to demolish.


There's a real danger that the left will drag Britain back to the 1970s, with secure well-paid jobs, ample housing, properly-funded NHS and social care, free tuition, student grants, final salary pensions, affordable rail fares and fabulous films and music. David Osland 2025

Wetherspoons are now walking away from this development, leaving the site in a holy mess, effectively forcing the Council to give planning permission for anything to be built in its place.

When you consider The Queens is also to be demolished, the Grand Hotel has already been demolished, the Travellers rest is already demolished, the Palace Arcade is to be demolished it looks like any semblence to a seaside resort is to be removed and some monstrous development will take place along the full stretch.
