SAVE THE HIGH GROVE, GATLEY, CHESHIRE

List the site as an Asset of Community Value.
Refuse Planning Permission for Change of Use to a private dwelling.

Why is this important?

The HIGH GROVE is the epitome of your friendly local pub and has been serving the Gatley estate for over 50 years. Our local pub is at the heart of the community. The pub is also the social hub of the area, providing local entertainment including regular quiz nights, evening events to raise money for local charities and hosting live televised sporting events.

The pub is expected to close at the end of 2015 and we desperately need your help to save it.

An application to register the High Grove as an Asset of Community Value has now been submitted to Stockport Council and will be heard at the Area Committee meeting on Sept 29th.

The potential closure of the High Grove public house demonstrates how vulnerable communities are to speculative and aggressive development tactics, we need you to help us urge the Council to accept the application to list the pub immediately.

This will ensure planning permission has to be sought and approved by the council for the pub to be demolished or converted to any other use.

The listing also gives the community an opportunity to potentially come together to form a co-operative group to buy and run our local pub.

Please sign the campaign and ask your neighbours to do also.

Anyone you know who frequents the High Grove or lives in the Gatley and Cheadle area should also be asked to sign it.

Protect our pubs from developers.
Gatley, Cheadle, Cheshire
