St Helier Pub Group makes application for listing
Petition: The St Helier Pub Group (SHPG) have long campaigned to have this community space returned to its rightful place as the centre of our community life to be run by and for the members of the St Helier Community.
If granted by Merton Council the listing of the Morden Tavern Public House would enable the community to have the right to bid on any Freehold or Leasehold associated with this property. There would be a six month period for St Helier residents to draw up such a bid and source the right finance.
The SHPG has made a long and considered study into how such a purchase might be achieved and they believe that a competitive bid can be made on part or the entire Morden Tavern site.
The group urges residents and all local Politians of any persuasion to support their bid for this ACV listing by signing their online petition at:
