ABOUT THIS BLOG

This popular and historic pub was acquired by its owners in 2009 with a view, initially, to building flats for social housing and then subsequently developing a small housing estate. Local residents opposed these plans from the start.

Planning permission was granted in 2010 after which the site was put up for sale. After many years of inactivity, building work finally started in July 2015. Locally, this was seen as good news. However, the houses have yet to be completed.

The aim of this Blog has been to keep residents informed of current developments and to record the long history of this small community's fight to keep its pub.

Planning Committee Decision

Here's the text of the Planning Committee's decision regarding the change of wording to condition 19.  We are very concerned that there is no mention of the badger survey which was recommended by SWT and brought to the Committee's attention by us in our presentation.  We are, however, not surprised.  The matter was overlooked (cynics might say conveniently) by the Development Control Department representative when summing up - despite our gesticulations.

Fear not.  SWT are already aware of the situation and we shall be following it up ourselves.

As this is likely to be the last post before Christmas (sorry, no pun intended!), we'd like to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and a prosperous New Year.
