I would expect you to be able to find the plans through the sheffield council planning portal if you google it.

As to why work has stopped, they probably had to break ground or lose the planning permission, but didn't actually want to do anymore at this time. Or they went bust.

Or they had no planning permission in the first place;

ENFORCEMENT REPORT

UNAUTHORISED EXCAVATION OF LAND, LAND OFF

MIDDLEWOOD ROAD NORTH

(AT THE REAR OF THE FORMER MIDDLEWOOD TAVERN, No.316)

1. PURPOSE OF THE REPORT

The purpose of this report is to inform Committee Members of a breach

of planning control and to make recommendations on any further action

required.

 

It seems, based on appearances, that the work is to form a new car

park area in the field with an access roadway to it from the existing car

park at the former pub. Contact with the owners has not been

established and the actual purpose of the development is unknown.

So the tavern is now a "former pub" no chance of it reopening then.

I don't think the report has any bearing on whether it could or could not reopen.

Lol, whoops.

 

I wonder if that will scupper any future chances of getting planning permission??

It wasn't in a great place to be fair.

 

Not that it couldn't be done, and be successful again but it would be a big task.

The report says that it's greenbelt, so it's highly unlikely that it would ever have got permission (whatever it was they were doing).

 

I can't see why it would be a carpark though, what use would that be?

 

Redeveloping the pub itself should be possible though, since there's already a building.

It WAS a pub though... What would the failed development work have been for?
