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.

Here We Go Again

And we're off!  The owners have submitted a new application, ref 10/14268/FUL.  We are currently perusing the info at the moment.  What we can tell you is that the intention is to build 7 houses of varying sizes.  At first glance, we can't see how this differs very much from the last application but we have yet to review all the documentation.

If you intend to look up the application on the SBC website, be aware that they have introduced changes to the software and it doesn't work in quite the same way as it did.

Watch this space for more info.
