Businessman Andrew Long, who recently acquired the hotel and the adjacent Judges Lodgings, has propelled these developments.

The initial focus is on transforming the Judges Lodgings and 2 Bailgate into additional hotel accommodations. This includes utilising the space above the visitor information centre at Castle Hill for hotel rooms and establishing a retail arcade on the ground floor, reported TheBusinessDesk.com.

The Judges Lodgings is also set to host a café and restaurant, complete with kitchen and toilet facilities, as well as a new structure for retail or commercial use, and increased parking.

Furthermore, the 1950s extension at the rear of the Judges Lodgings will be demolished to create space for a new extension and the undercroft at 2 Bailgate will be redeveloped into a Georgian arcade-style shopfront.
