Purpose

The purpose of this decision is
to decide whether the land/building should be included as an asset
of community value (“ACV”) on the Council’s
register of ACVs.
 
On 22 January 2024 a nomination
was received from Grantchester Parish Council in respect of
The Green Man Public House, 59 High Street, Grantchester CB3 9NF.
This is a re-nomination of an asset that is due to expire on 8
April 2024 in accordance with the legislation following expiry of
the listing.
 
Following consideration of the
nomination, Notice of Nomination was sent to Cllr Michael Atkins,
Cllr Ariel Cahn and Cllr Lisa Redrup, (for the district Ward of
Harston & Comberton), to the Parish Council acknowledging their
nomination and to the owners. The nomination was publicised through
the weekly bulletin and the Lead Member for Communities was
notified.

Content

Officers have considered the nomination along with the feedback
received following issue of Notices of Nomination, and are
satisfied that the principal use of the asset as detailed in the
map accompanying the nomination does further the social well-being,
or cultural recreational or sporting interests of the local
community (and has done in the recent past) and it is realistic to
think there can continue to be non-ancillary use of the
building/land which will further the social interests of the local
community. Therefore, it can be accepted, in accordance with
Section 88 (1) of the Localism Act 2011.
