CAMRA - North Hampshire Branch This Page:           Campaigns - The Plough Inn Last Updated: 28th August 2005   The Plough Inn, Ashmansworth Change of Use from Public House to Residential Dwelling: REFUSED     After putting forward a detailed submission on the viability and demand for local pubs, this result shows that our efforts are worthwhile. Thanks to all who wrote in letters of objection. The important thing is to now support the pub and to visit it as much as possible. Letter received from Basingstoke & Deane Planning Department: To: Mr J Buckley North Hampshire Campaign for Real Ale Dear Mr Buckley Location: The Plough, Ashmansworth Proposal: Change of use from public house to residential dwelling I refer to the application submitted in respect of the above mentioned proposal and to the representations you have made. The applications and representations received have been considered and permission has been refused for the following reasons: The Local Planning Authority considers there is insufficient justification for the loss of a Public House, which is a Community facility, in this area. In particular the applicant has failed to show that there is no longer a need for such a facility in the locality. the proposal is therefore contrary to Policy CF104 of the Basingstoke and Deane Borough Local Plan and Policy C9 of the emerging Local Plan. Yours sincerely Graham Wyatt Principal Planning Officer.     Click here to read the previous article on The Plough: November 19th 2003 Update Please let us have your comments: Write to Us.   << BACK TO CAMPAIGNS ^ BACK TO TOP ^
