I have just spoken to a developer (or is it architect) based in London. Name:
Steven Jones of Parkridge Homes (Southern) Ltd
They have put in a pre-application for the Gala Bingo, and apparently has a
contract with the owners (subject to planning consent, I believe) to
1. Demolish the existing site
2. Build 40 flats, 25 parking spaces
3. Keep the ground floor for retail use (3000 sq ft) (not a pub, he suggested)
He said an application is likely in the next month or so, and after then, they
may (or presumeably may not) come down and explain their proposals. (I think he
was a bit taken aback to be rung up by me at 5pm on a Friday night)
I said the future of Gala Bingo is causing a lot of interest locally, and
suggested coming and talking may help.
Would anyone like to meet up to have a chat about it?
