‘St Saviours Ritz’ plans rejected

Its closed.
It ain't gonna reopen.
Get over it.!!!!!

I am afraid i think Ploughman is right , i cannot see another pub there.

After many years of going downhill, unfortunately enough, i too can't see The Ritz ever opening again. I have many good (& bad) memories of the pub.
It is a shame for the very few who used it, and perhaps, had more people used it more often, it may have been financially worth keeping it open.

FORMER Environment minister David De Lisle has spoken out against the latest plans for St Saviour’s Tavern.
Recent proposals for The Ritz do not include a bar, as the original plans had done.
Deputy De Lisle said he has sent a representation to the Environment Department about the importance of a parish pub.
‘This location had provided an important social venue and meeting place for parishioners,’ he said.
‘Without it people are left without a bar in walking distance from their properties in an area that has become quite densely populated.(from thisisguernsey)

As much as I like a pint it takes more than hal a dozen regulars to keep a pub viable.

A REJECTED planning application to turn St Saviour’s Tavern into flats has been welcomed by the members of a group who have been campaigning to save their local pub.
Corinne Connolly from Start, which is hoping to bring back the tavern to its former glory or restore the bar to the building, has welcomed the news.
Plans for the former tavern, which was sold in 2007, originally included a bar but the recent application had removed it.
‘It’s very good news. I’m just so happy with the outcome,’ said Mrs Connolly.
She said the presentation Start - which stands for Support Tradition and Restore Tavern - had made to Deputy Peter Sirett, along with the 422-strong petition they had given him, had been worthwhile.
‘Everyone I have spoken to about it has said well done and keep up the good work - it’s just brilliant.
Mrs Connolly added that the campaign would not be giving up just yet.
‘We see it as a positive step forward,’ she said. (from thisisguernsey)
