Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the loss of a public house in this location is acceptable, having regard to its community use and its continued viability

What decided it

The demonstrated unviability of the public house use, supported by a professional viability assessment and comprehensive marketing over 18 months with no interest from operators, combined with the availability of alternative public houses nearby, meant the loss was not unnecessary and accorded with the Framework.
