Carpenters Arms

The planning application to turn the Carpenters Arms into residential accommodation has been refused by CBC. It gives the reasons as follows:
 



The proposed development would result in the loss of a significant community facility in the centre of Cranfield, a Minor Service Centre which will be subject to housing growth. 

Insufficient clearly substantiated evidence has been provided by the applicant to demonstrate that there is no longer a need for such a facility, the loss of which would undermine community and sustainability objectives. 

The proposal is therefore contrary to the objectives of the NPPF and Central Bedfordshire Core Strategy (2009) Development Management Policy DM4 & DM8.
