A derelict, Grade II listed former pub in the heart of Mansfield town centre could be transformed under new plans. The Dial, in Market Place, has been closed since December 2019 following an “extended period of poor trading”, developers say.
However, a new planning application submitted to Mansfield District Council wants to turn the site into a commercial space with expanded accommodation above. Maun River Developments Ltd has lodged the plans, saying the new scheme would include a commercial unit in the old pub and two floors of housing.
It says both upper floors would be converted into houses in multiple occupancy (HMOs), providing ten bedrooms in total. The building, which is Grade II-listed alongside several other sites in Mansfield, is of Georgian-era origins and already has some housing above.
