Plans to create homes on the site upset the local community
A decision on whether allow the demolition of a Nottinghamshire pub and replace it with new homes has been postponed. The Gardeners Inn, in Cossall, near Ilkeston, was closed in February this year, with plans submitted to knock it down and build five detached houses.
Former landlady Sue Maxwell, who ran The Gardeners Inn since 2015, found out the pub had been sold to two new landlords, who intended on redeveloping the site, in July 2021. After her lease expired in February this year the pub was fenced off and boarded upThe applicant has claimed the previous occupier of the public house had removed/damaged the internal facilities of the building.
A planning officer said a 'significantly high number' of objections had been raised, with the pub serving as a local community facility. Locals previously shared their memories of the shutdown pub. The Gardener’s Inn was previously listed as an asset of community value. But in 2021 it was removed from the list as it was judged that there was no evidence of realistic continued use.
