| DRILL HALL CONVERSION COULD START IN
MAY 2008 |
 |
| Carrick planners have accepted Merlin
Cinemas' plan for a change of use of the former Drill
Hall in Berkeley Vale (just off The Moor) after conservation
officers' concerns had caused the project to be delayed.
The hall is a Grade II listed building and the plans are
subject to consultations. The building is greatly in need
of repair with obvious signs of neglect but the appearance
of the exterior will remain mainly unaltere after renovation.

 |
| Hopefully Falmouth's much-needed cinema
complex which has been designed with FIVE
SCREENS, two bar / restaurant areas and a retail outlet
will progress quickly. The main screen would seat 162
with others varying between 115 and 30. The plans can
be viewed here (PA02/2182/07/B) |
 |
| A planning application was originally
made on 24th October, 2007, by Roger Geddes Associates
on behalf of Merlin Cinemas, to turn the old Drill Hall
in Falmouth into a multi-screen cinema. The company who
run cinemas across Devon and Cornwall are enthusiastic
about the prospect of the new Falmouth venture. |
 |
| Speaking for Merlin, Mr Geoff Greaves
said "We are excited about securing the Drill Hall
and bringing a multi-screen cinema to Falmouth. The building
is a tardis and I believe we can deliver a high quality
cinema in the internal space whilst giving this historic
building a new lease of life and purpose." He continued:
"Falmouth is a great town and the Drill Hall a wonderful
location, hopefully it will not be too long before local
people have a wide choice of films available to them without
the need to travel far." With regard to the schedule
of the development he said: "Subject to approval
of the plans we hope to start the conversion during May
this year." |
 |
| The building has a considerable history
dating back to 1870s. It was bought by L2 nightclub owner,
Tim Vigus, in 2004, who planned to convert it into a £1.5
million live music venue and nightclub. Nearby residents
formed a petition against the plans and Mr Vigus decided
not to go through with the plans. Recently it has been
used as a second-hand market. |
 |
| TERENCE O'ROURKE PLANS REVEALED - INCLUDING
CINEMA |
 |
| The long-awaited "O'Rourke Report"
- an expert plan on the development of Falmouth has been
revealed and includes plans for a small cinema. |
 |
| The
plans are for the whole of Falmouth and have been commissioned
by South West of England Regional Development Agency (SWERDA),
Cornwall County Council and Carrick District Council. |
 |
| The
part relating to the cinema will, as thought, still be
close to the originally planned building at Discovery
Quay on land which is presently being used as a car park
by the Maritime Museum. The development around the Watersports
Centre would also include a "boutique hotel".
Check out the website containing the information ...
CLICK HERE then click on PROJECTS then REGENERATION
then FALMOUTH AND PENRYN. Falmouthcinema.co.uk had lobbied
for a cinema to be included in the plans. |
 |
| FALMOUTH CINEMA IN THE HANDS OF DEVELOPERS |
 |
| Back to the drawing board... that is the
situation now that the maritime site has fallen through. |
 |
| There
may still be options for the development of a cinema not
too far from the maritime site. The cinema concept was
proposed by New Cornwall Developments for the Discovery
Quay development and will hopefully be included in future
development proposals for that end of town. It is up to
the general public not to let their local councillors
forget that there is an overwhelming desire for this facility
in the town. |
 |
| WTW
Cinemas, a Cornish based cinema group operating in
Truro, St. Austell, Wadebridge and Padstow are hoping
to be the eventual operators of a Falmouth cinema. Director
David Williams speaking to falmouthcinema.co.uk
said: "he was disappointed at the number of false
starts that the cinema project has had and had hoped to
have a cinema up and running in Falmouth." |
 |
| New
Cornwall Developments have now started Block A construction
which includes apartments, shops, offices, pub and other
leisure facilities. This development had originally included
a cinema in its plans but was not approved by Carrick
Council. One of the main objectors to that original development
was Maritime Museum Cornwall! |
 |
| The November 2nd, 2005, edition of Falmouth
Packet highlighted a cash crisis at the National Maritime
Museum Cornwall. Built with millions of pounds of public
money it is now fighting to recover from a serious financial
mess with insolvency experts being consulted. It was only
a last minute cash injection from the maritime museum
at Greenwich that saved the Falmouth attraction from closing
earlier this year. |
 |
| Visitor numbers were way down on forecast
and the museum was losing money. Confidential documents
were obtained by the Packet revealing that the
cash crisis came to a head in December 2004, just two
years after the £28m museum opened! |
 |
| The South West Regional Development Agency
who own the former TA site car park have "gifted"
the museum the bulk of the revenue from the car park for
the next two years with hints of an extension. That
information was not to be given to the general public!
When the site is eventually developed the Packet
has learned that the NMMC could benefit again by being
given a building on the site. |
 |
| Jonathan Griffin, museum director, on the
subject of Events Square, is quoted as saying: "It
was originally based as a single development and frankly
has been struggling," he said. "Personally,
I think if the square had been opened in one go it might
have worked, it might not. We have been struggling and
we are the anchor project of this square." The sooner
the square was finished the better. |
 |
| It is a bit rich of Mr Griffin to moan
about the unfinished Events Square when he was one of
the main objectors to the building of 'Block A' which
included the cinema. That would have now been up and running!
The question should be asked - why are the people running
the Maritime Museum apparently so against a cinema as
the original plans included an 800-seat multiplex. |
 |
| The Falmouth Packet should be congratulated
for their investigations. |
 |
| NO CINEMA FOR BLOCK D |
 |
| The development of Block A at the Maritime
Museum complex is now going ahead without the Block D
(Cinema) tie-in. Councillors voted to allow the developers
to start construction on the development that includes
apartments, shops, offices, pub and other leisure facilities
without the Cinema tie-in OR a bond which was earlier
offered. (see
news) |
 |
| When asked about the position of the Block
D development, Johathan Griffin, Director, National Maritime
Museum Cornwall, told falmouthcinema.co.uk: "Although
the museum have the Ponsharden boat storage area it does
not mean that the Block D site would not be required as
a nearby storage area for the museum and if the museum
decides to relinquish its lease on the land it would have
to be on terms that benefit the National Maritime Museum
charity." |
 |
| When it was suggested by falmouthcinema.co.uk
that having a cinema in close proximity to the museum
may well benefit the Museum Charity by drawing people
to that end of town, he said: "That is only your
perception!". |
 |
| PLANNERS GIVE GO-AHEAD, Wednesday,
9th March |
 |
| Carrick District Council Planning Committee
have given the go-ahead for the 400-seater cinema complex
in Block D of the Maritime Development. |
 |
| The success of this application can be
credited to New Cornwall Developments for their persistency
and also the campaigners who have lobbied the Carrick
planners and councillors. |
 |
| The planners having regard to all the relevant
material planning considerations, approved the application
for the following reasons... |
 |
| It is considered that the proposed cinema
(VIEW PLANS)
would not have an adverse impact upon the character or
appearance of the area, adversely effect residential amenity
or result in an unacceptable loss of potential boat storage
facilities. It is considered that the proposal would be
of economic benefit to Falmouth and provide a valuable
community facility. |
 |
| The conditions for approval include provision
of affordable housing in Block A as part of the 14 apartments
included in that development, financial contributions
relating to education, ensure that purchasers of dwellings
are made aware of a likely noise associated with the Events
Square and to allow 18 long stay spaces in the Grove Place
Extension Car Park.
(VIEW SITE) |
 |
| The development of Block A cannot begin
until phasing proposals for the construction of a cinema
on Block D (to include the co-commencement). The development
of Blocks A and D shall thereafter be undertaken strictly
in accordance with the approved phasing details. This
is in order to secure a cinema in the interests of the
acceptability of the proposals. |
 |
| The developers still need to acquire the
land for the cinema but negotiations for this are underway.
Once that has been secured we will then learn of the timescale
for the building work. Terry Barnes, speaking for the
developers says there are still major obstacles that need
to be addressed but all being well, Christmas opening
could be achieved. |
 |
Supporters raised
the following issues:
Asset to the town and benefit to local businesses
Much needed Injection of life
Cinema is a much needed leisure facility which
will benefit all. Falmouth residents should not have to
travel elsewhere to a cinema. Benefit to tourism and the
Maritime Museum.
Lack of alternative sites. Not detrimental
impact on Falmouth Arts Centre
Loss of short stay spaces no obstacle |
 |
The main concerns
of objectors were:
Noise and disturbance Security Litter
Loss of view
Loss of parking Nuisance during construction
Should be closer to centre of town
Low frequency noise Property prices |
 |
|
|
|
|
| DEVELOPERS STRUGGLING TO ACQUIRE BLOCK
D LAND |
 |
| THE GENERAL consensus of opinion is that
Falmouth Cinema will not be situated within the Maritime
Development at Discovery Quay. Although planning permission
for a 400-seater cinema has been granted for "Block
D" by Carrick District Council the developers, New
Cornwall Developments, have not yet been able to acquire
the land. |
 |
| It is more likely that the Maritime Museum
will use the Block D area as part of their development
programme. The museum had earmarked this area as a storage
facility. There may still be options for inclusion of
a cinema within future developments at that end of the
town. It is likely to become clearer early in the New
Year what the future holds for the development of a cinema.
|
 |
| New Cornwall Developments intend to start
the Block A construction which includes apartments, shops,
offices, pub and other leisure facilities early in the
new year. This development had originally included a cinema
in its plans but was not approved by Carrick Council.
One of the main objectors to that original development
was Maritime Museum Cornwall! |
 |
| COUNCIL VOTE TO BREAK DEVELOPMENT TIE-IN
WITH CINEMA |
 |
| THE DEVELOPMENT of Block A at the Maritime
Museum complex is now to go ahead without the Block D
(Cinema) tie-in. Carrick Councillors voted at a full meeting
of the council to allow the developers to start construction
on the development that includes apartments, shops, offices,
pub and other leisure facilities without the Cinema tie-in
OR a bond which was earlier offered. |
 |
| Despite the previous offer of the £100,000
bond to be forfeited if the project was not carried out,
the Carrick planners refused permission because councillors
did not believe the bond was likely to lead to the provision
of a cinema. This went against the planning officer's
recommendation and the concerns over possible cost implications
in the event of an appeal. The application had went to
planning referrals but was again refused, but this time
on noise grounds. |
 |
| Officers have consistently expressed concern
that a refusal based on noise grounds would be difficult
to substantiate at appeal and there were no material planning
grounds to require the construction of a cinema. "While
a cinema is desirable, it ought not necessarily be required
of the applicants in relation to the development of Block
A," said head of development services Karl Roberts. |
 |
| The matter went to full council when members
were told the offer of the bond had been withdrawn by
the company. Councillors agreed to approve the scheme,
subject to an agreement by the company to give financial
contributions to education and opens space and the inclusion
of four affordable units within the development. |
 |
| Falmouth Town Mayor and member of the Carrick
Planning Committee, Roger Bonney, said he was angry and
disappointed with the decision. "We have done everything
we possibly could and I feel we've worked really hard.
The application now has been just so they can build the
flats and not the cinema. It's a loss of honour and principle.
If someone says they are prepared to build this thing
they should be held to that responsibility. We say you
should honour an agreement and do what's necessary,"
he said. |
 |
| Terry Barnes of New Cornwall Developments,
speaking to falmouthcinema.co.uk
states that the receiver handling the Block D site is
still "sorting out" the details of the land
which has partly been allocated to the Maritime Museum
for a storage unit. The construction of a cinema is still
in the pipeline, says Mr Barnes. |
 |
| Mr Barnes said he could understand why
Mr Bonney is worried but we genuinely want to build it.
"We have spent £50,000 getting planning permission
and did not intend pulling out now, he added." He
continued: "We are very serious about the cinema,
we have got an operator and planning permission for the
site ... we just need to get on the site." |
 |
| A keen supporter of the cinema project
has been Rev. Stephen Tudgey, the vicar of King Charles
the Martyr Church, he says that "Whatever the outcome
for the future, Falmouth is very much still in need of
a cinema. On a wet day Truro's car parks were full and
it would be good for residents of Falmouth to have a cinema."
He continued: "One can only hope that the developer
will honour pledges to build a cinema locally and this
will be great for residents, tourists and students." |
 |
| JULY COUNCIL MEETING MAY DECIDE CINEMA'S
FATE! |
 |
| The final decision on whether the construction
of Block A in the maritime complex can go ahead will be
made by Carrick District Council's full meeting next month. |
 |
| With the planning committee voting against
the commencement of Block A without a cinema (Block D)
tie-in last month and going against the planning officer's
recommendation the planning referrals committee was asked
to reconsider, but maintained it should be thrown out. |
 |
| Officers are concerned that as there are
no material planning grounds to require the construction
of the cinema, the applicant was likely to win any appeal
which could result in Carrick having to pay substantial
costs. |
 |
| PLANNERS REJECT DEVELOPERS' £100,000
BOND ATTEMPT |
 |
| Carrick District Council's planning committee,
at a meeting on Wednesday, 25th May, have rejected New
Cornwall Developments' application to relax their tie-in
between Block A containing 14 Residential Units, together
with shops, offices, a pub and restaurant and other leisure
facilities and Block D which contains the cinema. |
 |
| The decision will now go before the planning
referrals committee on June 16 because members voted against
the planning officer's recommendation. |
 |
| NCD still have an appeal in place for an
earlier planning application for Block A that did not
include a cinema. This is due to be heard in September
(coincidentally the same timescale as the likely outcome
of NMMC's Business Plan). NCD had intended to withdraw
that appeal had the £100,000 bond been accepted
and the tie-in with Block D broken. |
 |
| According to NCD secondary plans have been
drawn up for a stand-alone cinema on an alternative site
nearby. If this option was carried forward it is likely
that it would be 2006 before plans were put forward. |
 |
| DEVELOPERS ASK FOR RELAXATION IN TIE-IN
BETWEEN BLOCKS A AND D |
 |
| The developers of the cinema "New
Cornwall Developments" are going back to the planners
to ask for a relaxation in the tie-in between Block D
containing the Cinema and Block A containing 14 Residential
Units, together with A1, A3, B1 and D2 uses. |
 |
| Terry Barnes, speaking for the Developers,
has put the cause of this down to the Maritime Museum
delaying a decision on the proposed Block D land because
"the museum has a covenant on the land but do not
have a Business Plan in place. This could add several
months onto the discussions. When we approached the
museum initially we understood there would be no problem
in releasing the land." |
 |
| Mr Barnes, speaking to falmouthcinema.co.uk
said: "We are still positive about the cinema project
and while seeking a relaxation in the tie-in with Block
A are willing to put down a £100,000 Bond towards
the cinema development. |
 |
| "Secondary plans have been drawn up
for a stand-alone cinema on an alternative site nearby
should Block D become unviable. |
 |
| New Cornwall Developments anticipate the
application for relaxation to be discussed by Carrick
District Council planning committee on Wednesday, 25th
May. |
 |
|
|
 |
| PLANNING PERMISSION WAS GRANTED to New Cornwall
Developments at a special meeting of Carrick Planners held on Wednesday
night, 9th March, 2005. |
 |
| Terry Barnes, speaking for the developers says:
"There are still major obstacles that need to be addressed
but all being well, Christmas opening could be achieved". |
 |
| The land for Block D is in the hands of receivers
and may take some weeks of negotiations for New Cornwall Developments
to acquire. |
 |
| Planning Officer Recommends Cinema Plans
COUNCILLORS TO VOTE ON CINEMA ON MARCH 9th |
 |
Ian Lloyd, the planning officer dealing with
the current application has recommended the plans for conditional
approval. There are a number of conditions, including all electric
and telephone cables to be routed underground and that there is
sufficient sound-proofing. See
papers |
 |
The cinema proposals indicate that it would be
finished in slate and timber, together with hardwood windows and
doors. See NEW PLANS
|
 |
There is also a second application for 14 flats
to be built in Block A, some of which would be affordable homes.
All flats would also be finished in materials in-keeping with the
development. Concerns have been raised over noise, although most
of the bedrooms would face away from Events Square. THE
SITE |
 |
The impressive two-storey building would house
a three-screen cinema (seating 200, 100, 100) and would be operated
by WTW Cinemas who also run Plaza Cinema in Truro. See NEW
PLANS |
 |
| It would
appear that the main body of objection would be from residents in
Campbeltown Way, in the Port Pendennis complex. As there is already
permission to build a storage shed on the site it is unlikely that
the objection would be covering the visual aspect! It is believed
that the objection would be to low-level noise. Noise consultants
have been brought in to give their views on this. |
 |
| The site has been approved by the Environment Agency.
The Maritime Museum originally had plans to erect a storage shed on
the land but it is no longer required by them and they are happy for
the cinema to be sited there. Planning permission is currently being
requested for alteration to parking arrangements at Grove Place Car
Park to take into account the Block A apartments. We believe this
will affect converting 18 parking bays from short stay to long stay. |
 |
| The developers previous proposal for Block A
is scheduled for appeal next September but if the new plans are
given the go-ahead, that appeal will obviously be dropped. |
 |
| A petition organised by teenagers Michael Moran
and Robert Ayres, won the backing of well over 1,000 people who
put their names to it, and fliers were drawn up by www.falmouthcinema.co.uk
and left in various shops around the town. The campaign to secure
a cinema for the town even won the support of the Rev. Stephen Tudgey,
Rector of Falmouth Parish Church. |
 |
| The company resubmitted new proposals for the
site, but as the building had to be reduced in size, it was no longer
possible to include the cinema. This prompted many residents who
were desperate to see a cinema in the town to take positive action. |
 |
It now looks as though the campaign of public
support may have had the desired effect. Terry Barnes, director
of New Cornwall Developments, announced this week that plans for
a cinema are back on the drawing board.

| PUPILS SEIZE THE CHANCE TO GRILL KEY DECISION-MAKERS
ON TOWN'S CINEMA
(West Briton, 24th February, 2005) ... |
 |
| A GROUP OF PUPILS from St. Francis School in
Falmouth spent an afternoon touring the site of the proposed cinema
for a geography project. The field trip was organised by teacher
Vanessa Farnell to help the nine and 10-year-olds improve their
data collection techniques. |
 |
 |
|
| Their brief was to conduct research, through
questionnaire's and data collection, in order to form
an opinion on whether the cinema is a good thing for Falmouth
on this site, next to the National Maritime Museum Cornwall. |
 |
| The year five children were divided into
groups to represent different interested parties, New
Cornwall Developments (the applicants), the Maritime Museum,
shops, public and the Environment Agency. |
 |
| As part of the
trip, the children interviewed museum director Jonathan
Griffin, developer Terry Barnes, and various shop staff. |

CHILDREN GO INTO ACTION TO LEARN ABOUT CINEMA
(Falmouth Packet, 12th February, 2005) ... |
 |
| LUCKY CHILDREN from a Falmouth primary school
have had the chance to meet with local businessmen to discuss the
proposal for a cinema in the town. A total of 28 pupils from year
five at St Francis Church of England School visited Discovery Quay
last Thursday, to interview the director of the National Maritime
Museum Cornwall, Jonathan Griffin, and Terry Barnes from New Cornwall
Developments (the company that submitted the plans for a three-screen
cinema to be built on the Maritime site. |
 |
| Class teacher Vanessa Farnell said: "They
have been incredibly mature in their whole approach and have thrown
themselves into their roles wholeheartedly." The children also
met with businesses around the quay to discuss the affect a cinema
could have on them, along with conducting car park surveys to see
if they could cope with the expected additional demand. |
 |
| The information they collected
will now be used to conduct a mock planning debate over whether
there should be a cinema at the site, with each of the pupils taking
a specific role." Miss Farnell added: "Pupils are very
excited at the prospect of being involved in the decision making
process of something that actually affects them and have been working
very hard in school on their questionnaires and data collection
techniques." |
 |
 |
|
| She said that although the children were
all in favour of the cinema, they would be trying to show
empathy to the other viewpoints as well. |
 |
| Mr Griffin said: "We're very happy
to work with any school. It's rather fun doing something
like this, which is rather different from the usual thing
you do. I have no idea what they are going to ask, but
I bet it will be challenging." |
 |
| Mr Barnes, from
the development company, said: "I think the questions
they asked were quite relevant and we were able to answer
them." |

| Rejection of plans for land
next to Events' Square brings angry response
DEVELOPERS TO APPEAL OVER REFUSAL OF SCHEME |
 |
| New Cornwall Developments' revised
application which did not include a cinema was thrown out by Carrick
Planning Committee who voted 15 in favour and one abstention to
refuse the plans because they felt the residential element could
be detrimental to the use of the Events' Square. Incredibly, Planning
Officer Kate Cooke had recommended conditional approval! |
 |
| The new proposals included 14 residential
apartments, a pub/restaurant, a second "high class: restaurant
with a terrace, offices, shops and a large ground floor area which
was likely to become a sports or leisure club. |
 |
| Terry Barnes, a director of New Cornwall Developments,
said the next day: "We are going to appeal, this is almost
indefensible. Once we have the refusal notice in our hands, we will
be going to appeal." |
| |
| There were six letters of objection
and two in support. At the planning meeting a letter was read out
from the director of the National Maritime Museum Cornwall, Jonathan
Griffin, who objected to the loss of the cinema and the inclusion
of the residential element. Rev. Stephen Tudgey, Falmouth Parish
Church, spoke of his concern over a possible conflict of interest
between residential apartments and the Events' Square and said he
also believed that a town the size of Falmouth needed a cinema. |
| |
| Councillor Michael Varney said: "Last year
the Classics Event brought complaints from people as far away as
1.5 miles. If you put a residential element in an area where they
propose to have live bands and thousands of people, it would lead
to complaints to environmental health department." |
|
| Developers blame planners for
refusing original application
PLANS FOR FALMOUTH CINEMA DROPPED |
 |
| New Cornwall Developments are disappointed and
frustrated that they have now had to abandon the Falmouth Cinema
project in favour of a new scheme which proposes a sports or health
club be included instead. |
 |
| The developers were forced to reconsider
their plans for Block A adjacent to Events Square after Carrick's
planning committee refused their original application in April,
which included the cinema, a restaurant / bar, offices and residential
accommodation above. |
 |
| N.C.D. Director, Terry Barnes, said "It
would have been a long shot because of the size of building needed.
We did not think we would have a problem with the cinema, it was
the size of the building in relation to the Maritime Museum that
caused the problems. We are frustrated and disappointed as we know
it would have been successful. |
 |
| The company has now come up with a fresh scheme
which shows a smaller block which it proposes will contain shops,
a pub/restaurant, a high class restaurant with a terrace, offices
and a large area on the ground floor which is designated as "assembly
and leisure" use. It is anticipated that this could be a sports
or leisure club. |
 |
| The cinema has been dropped because the developers
say that it could not physically fit it into the newly designed,
smaller building. The news was not received well by the town councillors.
Planning committee chairman Roger Bonney said: "It is a sad
loss that we have no cinema. To stick up a monstrosity like that
without a cinema is really bad. Mayor Maureen Davies added: "I
do feel that we need a cinema in the town ... do we honestly need
or want more luxury flats?" |
 |
| The committee has recommended that Carrick refuse
the new application claiming it is an over-development of the site
and because of what councillors perceive as a lack of business interest. |
 |
| CINEMA PETITION: TEENAGERS GAIN 1,000 SIGNATURES
(West Briton, May 20th, 2004) ... |
 |
Two teenagers from Falmouth
who started a petition in support of a cinema for the town have
already got nearly 1,000 signatures. Michael Moran and Robert Ayres,
who are both 15, decided to set up the petition after Carrick District
Council threw out proposals by New Cornwall Developments Ltd. last
month. |
 |
| The boys, both pupils at Falmouth Community School,
said a cinema is a necessity in Falmouth and plan to hand over the
petition to Carrick Council in the near future. |
  |
| "Every weekend we end up going to Truro
to go to the cinema as there is not much to do in Falmouth when
it is raining," said Michael. Copies of the petition have been
put in Boslowick Shop, Boslowick Post Office, Lizzie's Cafe, Cornish
Store, Bar News and Rose's News, where anyone who wishes to add
their name can do so. |
