Episode Details

A historic pub in Loughborough, The Green Man, dating back to the late 1700s and possibly older, faces demolition to make way for student housing — but locals are fighting back. Once a beloved community hub and now a forgotten basement space with no stairs, it’s legally still classified as a public house. Developers argue its function has changed, but historians and residents are rallying to save it — suggesting it could be repurposed as a cafe or gym instead of becoming a car park storage unit. With the Tylers Department Store set to leave next year, the public has until August 3rd to weigh in on whether this piece of local history should be preserved or lost to redevelopment.
