Restaurant confirms new building plans after fire

by Julia

A restaurant chain has confirmed plans to rebuild one of its sites which was destroyed in a fire.

Harvester's restaurant in Coastguard Road, Littlehampton, was gutted by a blaze in August 2023 which also closed a nearby cinema and entertainment centre for eight months.

A spokesperson for Harvester said the chain was "definitely planning" on rebuilding the site and was working with Arun District Council on a planning application.

The chain did not provide a timescale for the restaurant to be rebuilt, citing the "unpredictable" planning process.

The previous fire-damaged building was demolished following the fire on 10 August, 2023 when Harvester said it was "committed" to building a new restaurant.

A restaurant spokesperson added: "We are committed to progressing the project as quickly as possible and will keep the community updated as we move forward."
