Reasons for decision
The panel considered that the property to be included on the list was:
- within the Council’s area
- nominated by an eligible body
- not within any category of land that is exempt from inclusion on the list
- of community value as there was clear evidence that the property is used principally for purposes which further the social wellbeing and social interests of the local community, and that it is realistic to think it can continue to be so used in the future. In particular, the panel noted that the property is used to provide live music, open mic nights and cultural events such as the Caldmore Acoustic Music Festival.
