Star Pubs & Bars (Heinekin’s property group) have announced that they intend to market the Cask from the 8th January. There is no guarantee that any purchaser would keep the pub going or if they’d knock the whole thing down and build flats.
The venue has also been host to the Scarborough Jazz Club for 17 years, another Scarborough institution that could be lost.
A FaceBook group has been established to help make the Cask an ACV (Asset of Community Value) which would in the first instance give a 6 month moratorium on the building being sold and shows that the Cask is a true community pub.
