As it's been some time since our last post we thought we'd better put something online to indicate that we are still here. We are, although there is little to report. Occasionally, people can be seen walking around the site and the odd vehicle parks up in the space by the site entrance. Other than that, developments seem thin on the ground. If you know any different do drop us a line.
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.Wednesday, 25 March 2015
