Fox Planning application goes before Breckland D.C. Planning Committee

The fate of Garbodisham Fox to be decided by Breckland District Council.
Monday 11th October will be a important day for the community of Garboldisham, a rural country village on the Norfolk/Suffolk borders, for it is the day that Breckland District Council’s Planning committee sit to decide whether to let an asset (stripping) company obtain a Change of Use order that would allow the 17th Century Fox Inn public house to be transformed into 5 private dwellings.

There is a lot of support for the “Save the Fox” action group, both within and outside of this community.

It is reported that previous attempts from both the group and interested individuals to purchase the freehold as a going concern have been thwarted by Criterion Asset Management who would seem to have a separate agenda than supporting rural enterprises as expressed by the current coalition government
