Wycombe Liberal Democrats

Further to article in Bucks Frees Press 24th August 2007, on a call to save the traditional pubs. We in the Ryemead ward have two pubs which are currently closed, and we are not sure of what is happening to them. The Red Lion on Corner of Cock Lane has now been closed for six months, during this time the outside has had a face lift but we still cannot find out when this will be re-opening.

The second pub, Halfway House on London Road, has now been closed and fenced off for over a year. It seems that the car park has been used for car storage, but I feel that this is only a temporary arrangement and we will soon be seeing a planning application for yet more flats, that will only add to increase the congestion on London Road at the expense of yet another public and community amenity.

With this in mind I feel there is a need for the community to back these causes and make a stand against profit lead developers.
