Local residents on the estate have clamoured for a pub, saying there were none within walking distance of their homes
Neighbours at the large Rivendell housing estate off the A612 Colwick Loop Road have shared their disappointment after plans for a much-anticipated pub were scrapped, with new proposals recently drawn up for a fast food drive-thru instead. With the housing estate located on land between Netherfield and Stoke Bardolph, near the Victoria Retail Park, local residents on the estate have clamoured for a pub, saying there were none within walking distance of their homes.
However, neighbours say it’s a ‘shame’ that the plans for a pub were scrapped, representing a ‘huge loss’ for the community. “I would rather a pub,” said 24-year-old Ethan Nichol.A resident who moved to the development six months ago, as a part of Phase 2a of the housing estate, said: “We don’t want it. I live on the estate, the last thing we want to do is people who are going to showcase their cars.
Another resident, who wished to remain anonymous, said: “It’s a huge [loss]. It would be lovely to have a pub and somewhere to go to for the community. I would be really nice for the residents of the care home [that's been built at the housing estate]. It’s a shame really.” Popeyes, known for its popular Chicken Sandwich, already has a branch in Upper Parliament Street, in Nottingham city centre, which opened in October last year. If granted planning permission by Gedling Borough Council, the new restaurant would create 100 jobs at Teal Park, which has been jointly developed by Warwickshire based AC Lloyd Commercial and Nottingham based Henry Davidson Developments .
