Oaklea Pub
 

Another 'un bites the dust.

Now where will certain well known members of Accy Web go for their pre-match drinks?

kin ell, when did it close? it was turned into a really nice pub

Re: Oaklea Pub
 

Still open, I believe but whoever owns it has applied for planning permission to turn it into flats:

Case File

Re: Oaklea Pub
 

I spoke to the owner on Tuesday.

The owner did the same thing 6 years ago. He has re-applied due to the fact that the existing application is about to expire. Also, HBC are shortly changing thier "Core Policy" on the planning application process. Thus, he wants to get his application in early.

Blimey, the owner dont mess about, a bloody shame if its re-developed i was nearly born in that pub former WMC! Is the owner pushing for this development bit har har at the executive yuppy apartments ---in accy mmmmm.

Re: Oaklea Pub
 

Wrong, Tealeaf, not flats, they're executive apartments whatever they are. Sound just right for Accy. ;)

Re: Oaklea Pub
 

Is it the building across the road from the Post Office which used to be a Working men's club? If so, lovely old stone building -would make very nice flats. Shame another pub would be closing (though i don't remember it as a pub) -saw on the news yesterday about how country pubs are managing to survive by diversifying into shops.

Re: Oaklea Pub
 

NOOOOO! :eek:

Must confer with Cashy and various other chaps urgently, as this will cause major disruption to our pre-match rituals. :(

Re: Oaklea Pub
 

Executive apartments are flats with an extra nought on the price to keep out the riff raff. ;)

Re: Oaklea Pub
 

In theory yeh, but some riff raff have pots of money.;)

Re: Oaklea Pub
 

Who'd want to live in a posh flat on the thoroughfare for the local footy club ? Every 2nd Saturday hoards of ageing Yobboes, Hooglians & away fans padding past your yard, widdling on your Perennials & nicking or abusing your garden gnomes. lunacy I tell you, lunacy. :eek:

Re: Oaklea Pub
 

If he already has PP on the building it runs out after 6 years so could just be renewing it just in case

Re: Oaklea Pub
 

Hooglians :confused:

Are they special to Accy or are they what you have in Germany? :)

Re: Oaklea Pub
 

Hooligans don't widdle.......they slash.:D

Re: Oaklea Pub
 

Your more genteel & aged thugling (see Cashy, Wynn & the rest of the Clayton Ol' Contemptibles :D)

“quod erat demonstrandum”. The Cashmeister has marvellously confirmed my point ;)
