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.

Pause for Thought

Now that the euphoria and celebrations have died down a bit it's worth considering what happens next.  In fact, one or two contributors have already started to do that (click on the links to see comments in earlier posts).  We can only speculate about what happens now.  One thing for sure is that it cannot be the end of the matter.  We did think of using this post to explore the various options but would hate to give anyone ideas they hadn't already thought of, if you see what we mean.

Rest assured, we'll keep you posted about any developments that come our way.
