The Sheaf and Sickle will remain a public asset rather than becoming a private dwelling. This outcome reflects the persistent efforts of our community to protect its vital resources. We have successfully secured the future of this establishment for the village.

UPDATE - Thee Planning Application was approved at Committee on April 24 by 6 votes to 2 with one abstention - but the battle goes on
The Issue was originally reported in the Rugby Advertiser 18/04/13 - http://bit.ly/15nfu5z
It is reported again following the Planning decision - http://bit.ly/102UaeF
As you will read, the campaign goes on. The owner could be persuaded not to turn the pub into a private dwelling if public opinion continues to demand otherwise. And I refute the claim by Planning that 'Five tenants have been made bankrupt'.
Please keep signing the Petition!
We, the undersigned, oppose the planning application R12/0916 being the plan to change the Sheaf and Sickle Public House, Coventry Rd, Long Lawford into a residential dwelling Our reasons are as follows: 1. Long Lawford is a quickly developing village in terms of house building, and it needs to expands the services and facilities available to residents, not cut back on them as this plan would do 2. There are no other community or leisure facilities in this part of the village, the part which happens to be where the newest houses have been, and are being, built 3. The Sheaf and Sickle Public House provided a community facility for the whole village of Long Lawford and its surrounding areas. 4. The Sheaf and Sickle was the only Public House with a restaurant providing food in the village We therefore urge you to turn down the above planning application NB Please leave your name as anonymous signatures may not be counted

The level of public interest in preserving the Sheaf and Sickle demonstrates that our community remains committed to protecting its local facilities. This momentum confirms that our village values the social infrastructure necessary for growth. We continue to challenge the recent decision with renewed focus.

Ridiculous decision. We need more places to meet up in the village not less. Keep it a pub!
6 votes to 2? sounds like they had their minds made up already. total farce.
hope they change their minds. really miss having a place to walk to on a friday night.
STOP THE CONVERSION. The village is growing not shrinking we need the pub open for business.
ive lived in long lawford my whole life and watched everything disappear. please dont take this away from us too.

The Sheaf has so much history. Turning it into a private house feels like such a huge waste for everyone living here.
