Back last August 29th there was a planning application to demolish the upper part of Rayleigh Lanes – thats the part where the snooker hall is. It was refused.<\/p>\n

Back then we reported:<\/p>\n

The appeal reference is APP\/B1550\/A\/09\/2097756 and you can find it on the planning inspectorate website here.<\/a><\/p>\n

If you want to send your own comments to the planning inspector, you have until April 22nd. You can do it online by clicking here.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
