Dear Andrew Lewis
 
The Bishop Blaize: Planning Application 09/01557/F
 
This email is to object to the planning application above on the following grounds:
 
1) The Bishop Blaize public house is a village amenity and this should take precedence over the wishes of an individual property developer
2) The pub is also a 'Destination Pub' - a typical English rural pub with a great garden and atmosphere to which people come from many miles around Sibford
3) The permanent closure of the pub will add to the rural decline of north Oxfordshire
4) Nothing substantial has changed since the refusal of the previous two applications
5) There is sufficient interest to purchase the Bishop Blaize as a going concern and the owner has the option to sell on this basis. Whether or not he makes less of a profit from such a sale than from selling a private dwelling is immaterial and should have no bearing on the matter.
6) We feel that it would be a terrible shame if, as we see it, such a pre-meditated plan to profit from a delightful village setting were to succeed.
 
Yours faithfully
 
Peter Jones
