The licensee of the pub where part of the film Kes was shot, fears the iconic building could be knocked down.
The Dards pub, on Pontefract Road, Cudworth, is owned by Enterprise Inns, who put the pub up for sale two weeks ago.
Licensee Adele Sellars says she is worried the building could be knocked down after having her own bid for the pub refused.
"It's the landmark of Cudworth," she said. "It's scary to think that in six months' time it could be knocked down in favour of new houses or a supermarket that people don't want."
Adele, 48, who also used to run the Singing Man in Shafton, took over the pub in October.
"The Dards had been closed for five months, there were rats when we first moved in. We went in and decorated, started serving meals, and got it up and running again.
"It's better now than it's been in years."
Adele says finding out her bid had been refused was very upsetting.
"I will keep it open until the end, but when people know that a pub is closing they tend to go elsewhere."
A spokesman for Enterprise Inns said: "As part of the ongoing development of our business, we do from time to time identify a pub that may no longer have a long-term future in our estate.
"After careful consideration, the decision has been made to sell the Dards, with no restrictions on future use.
"The property is now on the open market through Smiths of Barnsley, inviting offers in the region of £290,000 excluding VAT."
