The Wakefield’s have the following idea for the Pub.

Put in a bedsit on the left side of the bar.

Right hand side small bar with “light eats” menu.

Patang area will be used for new house build, access from Farm Drive. There may be loading / unloading issues.

They wish to live within the community and believe that the 300-year-old pub cannot be sustained as a pub and no buyers are coming forward.

  1. Any Other Business.

Historic England have rejected the addition of the water trough near Village Green as it doesn’t meet their criteria.  Concrete drive was widened and this affected the spring. There is a pump and it’s on David Moseley land. PC will look to having it protected as part of the Village Green.

 

Village Green registration Clerk to chase up and once complete PC will formally thank the Joy estate for their help and support during this transfer.
