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 Meeting

The latest planning application, 11/16147/FUL, goes before SBC's Planning Committee on Wednesday 14th December 2011 starting at 6.30pm.  We have offered to speak on behalf of the community objecting to the application.  Of course, if anyone else wants to do this they are perfectly entitled to do so in which case contact committeeservices@staffordbc.gov.uk.

As with the previous applications, it is always good to have supporters along.  Early indications are that a number of residents will be attending.  Do feel free to join us.  The more the merrier!  The venue is as follows:

Craddock Room
Civic Suite
Civic Centre
Riverside
Stafford.

We hope to see you there!

By the way, will the author of the comment on the previous post ("Amended Application") please get in touch regarding our request for more information.

    The author has already made his views known to SBC on the dysfunctional system that they purport to be the portal to raise concerns to them.
    The apathy was expectedly astonishing.
