New shots show the scale of development currently ongoing at the site of the former John Clare pub in Gunthorpe.

Provided by community champion Andrew Macfarlaine, the drone shots shows that significant progress has now been made on the development on Hallfields Lane.

The demolition work began in October 2025 following a planning application from Asha Homes way way back in 2023.16

Once complete, the site will be home to a development of 16 new flats, complete with 15 car parking spaces.
