The Area Committee considered a nomination received in response to the Community Right to Bid provisions of the Localism Act 2012 from ‘Protect Gotherage Lane Park’ for the inclusion of Gotherage/ Tangshutt Recreation Ground, off Gotherage Lane, Romiley, Stockport on the list of assets of community value.
The Area Committee has determined that Gotherage/ Tangshutt Recreation Ground, off Gotherage Lane, Romiley, Stockport is within the Local Authority’s area; it does not fall within one of exemptions specified in the Regulations and further that Asset’s main use (i.e. not ancillary) has recently been or is presently being used to further the social wellbeing or social interests of the local community and could reasonably do so in the future (i.e. within the next five years) and therefore satisfied the requirements of the Regulations and should therefore be listed as an Asset of Community Value.
