A COMMUNITY group to scrutinise the care and restoration of the Raven is being set up by Droitwich Spa Civic Society.
Acting as an independent critique, the group will keep an eye on key developments with the Raven after it was decimated by a fire in recent weeks.
The first meeting of the group will take place at 7.30pm on Wednesday, September 10 at Droitwich Methodist Church. Everyone is welcome to attend and those going are encouraged to arrive at 7pm.
Councillor Richard Morris, who has been heavily involved in meetings with key stakeholders regarding the future of the site, will attend the meeting to provide an update for attendees.
Discussions at the meeting will include the Raven’s rich history, a chronology of the current situation, details on the site’s listed elements, existing planning permission for redevelopment, the impact of the fire and the future of the site.
Attendees will also be able to ask Coun Morris any questions they have.
Extensive discussions have already taken place among key stakeholders to work on securing the future of the site’s listed elements and making the building safe ahead of a planned redevelopment by it’s private owners.
Structural engineers, heritage organisations, building preservation trusts and key local political authority’s are all involved in the discussions and work.
