As a small community public house, the community, customers and staff have been given the news that the public house, De Winton Hotel, is aiming to be sold with plans to be demolished and turned into housing.
The De Winton is a family-friendly pub that strives to accommodate everyone that enters its doors.
Many people who visit the pub on a regular basis have already expressed their concerns, that a place for social gatherings will cease to exist, and therefore many people will not have a place to socialise within walking distance from their homes. The residents of Thomas Street, Station Road, Lewis Terrace and De Winton Terrace have already expressed their fear that the excess traffic and disturbances during and after construction of the proposed site. If the plans come to fruition there will be a huge void and bitterness left in the community.
We would strongly invite any persons against this to sign the petition in a bid to stop the development of the 'last' community public house in the Llanbradach becoming another piece of social history.

As an ex resident of Llanbradach I feel the loss of the De Winton in favour of more houses is wrong. There will be no public house at that end of the village and the village already has a huge traffic problem. No more developments, Please
I have seen many pubs closed in small villages where all that's left is a void that will never be filled leaving all but memories that fade with time . The De Winton us part of Llanbradach history and should remain so . It's the people's pub let it live .
It would be very sad if it went. I am married with three children, and we are always welcomed. We live on dewinton terrace, and it is already a nightmare with traffic without adding to the existing problem.
This is a family run pub by my mother and step farther and they have put so much time effort and money into keeping this place open and it will be a shame and upset to see all there hard work go down the drain over some stupid houses this is my parents lively hood and a place where the community gets to come meet up with friends and family ect
I live in thomas street. It's not just the parking and speeding cars that will get worse it's the fact that alot of these old terraced houses are prone to subsidence and the building work Will cause huge implications.
I have spent many a happy hour in the De Winton. With all places of social gathering getting less and less its a shame to close this one, especially for means of obvious profit .Again our modular of democracy shows its true meaning profit before the wants of the local people. As many people have pointed out the De Winton go's back many generations not just within ours, why not leave it for next generation to enjoy as much as my generation did.
This cannot happen.

A lovely old pub with history going back to the days when it stabled horses for the village pit. That has gone, don't let this community facility go the same way.
