Halfway House, Bradford: Derelict Yorkshire pub could be replaced with housing instead of car garage

Last year a planning application to flatten the former Halfway House on Huddersfield Road and build a vehicle repair shop in its place were approved by Bradford Council. The work has yet to begin, although the site was recently fenced off, and late last month a different use for the site was proposed in a new planning application. If the new plans, by a Mr Mehgran, are approved, four family homes would be built on the site instead of a garage.

Almost 100 people objected to the previous application to demolish the pub, with some arguing the building should be listed. Last September a planning committee heard the building had suffered from vandalism and flood damage after leadwork was removed from the roof and radiators were ripped off walls. The new application says: “The building is currently vacant and in a dilapidated state, showing signs of vandalism and theft.
