GORSEY COP/
CRYING TREE -
WHAT'S HAPPENING?
In April 2017, planning permission 16F/1122 and listed building consent 16L/1123 was granted for the conversion of the former Crying Tree pub in Grange Lane (originally a house called Gorsey Cop) into 8 flats, and the redevelopment of the grounds to include 5 newbuild dwellings - plus 2 units within the converted barn/coach-house - following partial demolition of the former Penrods function suite. Since that time, very little seems to have happened. Now the owner, Mr Lee Goldsmith, has submitted a further planning application (21F/1249) to reconfigure the interior of the listed building in a slightly different way.
The amendments proposed are: (i) to extend two ground floor flats into the lower ground floor, to form duplex units, (ii) to create 3 instead of 2 flats on the first floor, (iii) to incorporate the attic space below the roof lantern into a second-floor unit, and (iv) to omit the proposed lower ground floor flat, but to create a small communal gym there. The application says these changes are the result of "market appraisal and advice on the saleability of the proposed apartments".The owner's objective is for work on the conversion to begin "in the near future".
