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.

Curiouser and Curiouser

We're hearing, once more on the grapevine, that the pub might not have been sold after all (the source is a very reliable one). 

There was some activity on the site a few weeks ago involving the Fire Brigade and other visitors which we took to be a precursor to a further planning application or even demolition but now we are hearing that the sale might not have happened.

As usual, we'll let you know when we hear more.
