Shock Swan Inn car park decision!

[The Clown of Pevensey Bay]

A letter has just arrived from the director of planning and environmental services at Lewes District Council.

Dear Sir/Madam,

PROPOSAL: New entrance & car parking
LOCATION: The Swan Inn Middle Street Falmer East Sussex

You recently commented on this application and I can inform you that it has been REFUSED.

Extra special praise must go to LDC for their use of CAPITALS.

oh happy days!!

 

[Mendoza]

There is a suitable site at Toads Hole Valley they can use, its within Walking distance of Falmer station

 

[Lord Bracknell]

The landlord does, of course, have a right to appeal. If he does, there will be a Public Inquiry.

This could drag on for YEARS.

 

[Fred Oliver - Legend]

and cost a fortune!!

shall we all sign a Petition to go against his planning application...

shall we all sign a Petition to go against his planning application...

I think that a petition would be fruitless, as they have already REFUSED him permission.

 

[Alex Alex Dawson oo! oo!]

What happened to the Falmer holly bush - I think we should be told FPC!

My tireless efforts to "Ban the Swan" has worked!!!

Thank you everyone for signing my petition - Democracy has prevailed!!!:falmerspi

I think as someone memorably pointed out when this was first raised: We don't object to him having a car park - it's just that we don't think it should be next to his pub.

There is a site for parking cars at Sheepcote Valley. Although this does not take into account "The Children of Mile Oak"............!

Perhaps he can share with a pub in Gillingham for a couple of years

As a resident, parent and official of a football club in Mile Oak, I would like to hereby state on behalf the whole of the local community that whilst I am in principle, in favour of the aforementioned car park. I wholeheartedly object to this monstrosity being built in Mile Oak. It would ruin the stunning view outside of my kitchen of the big tree on the corner of Broomfield Drive.

I would suggest Beeding Cement Works? No one parks there and the transport to the site is non-existence. however, you could walk from the Swan Inn to the Cement works in 30 minutes.

Has he looked into a Park and Drink scheme?

 

[Everest]

Maybe he should just F off.

Does he have a litter squad?

[maffew]

excellent decision. The village really doesnt need countless more pub hooligans turning up in cars getting drunk and urinating everywhere.
Imagine the traffic

 

[Barry Izbak]

Top work everyone. I just hope he knows where many of the objections came from. And I hope he thinks it is petty and vindictive, because that was what it was meant to be

Happy to be a N.I.H.B.Y. - not in his back yard

 

[Yorkie]

Didn't I read on Nsc recently that it was a new landlord?
