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.

It's All Gone Quiet Over There

And it has.  Even the light has gone out!  Not a great deal to report at the moment.  We are still waiting for the owners to submit their planning application for the "housing scheme" (we still think that sounds ominous).  However, that doesn't mean to say that there isn't work to be done.  We have a few irons in the fire that we are working on at the moment and will reveal in due course. 

In the meantime, keep those pencils sharpened!
