List of unsuccessful and removed assets

We are required to keep a list of unsuccessfully nominated assets.

Keswick Station Platform (ref: 2022/002)

Asset details:

  • Address: Keswick Station
  • Locality area: Keswick
  • Date of decision: Not accepted​​​​​

'Broughton Lodge' site (ref: 2015/003)

Asset details:

  • Address: Broughton Moor, CA15 7SG
  • Locality area: Maryport/Cockermouth
  • Date of decision: 6 October 2015
  • Reasons for decision: The Panel concluded that although community use of parts of the nominated land had been evidenced, a large proportion of the area nominated is grazing land farmed by tenant farmers. The Panel therefore considered use for agriculture to be the main use of these areas. This use is not considered to further the social wellbeing or interests of the local community. The nominated land therefore does not meet the definition of an asset of community value in the Localism Act 2011.

The Wheatsheaf Inn, Abbeytown (ref: 2015/009)

Asset details:

  • Address: Abbeytown, Wigton, Cumbria, CA7 4RG
  • Locality area: Wigton
  • Date of decision: 7 January 2016
  • Reasons for decision: The Panel concluded that the nomination failed to provide sufficient evidence that the nominating body (being Solway CAMRA branch) met the criteria in the regulations as a voluntary or community body eligible to nominate an asset as asset of community value. On this basis the nomination has been unsuccessful.

Oddfellows Arms, Caldbeck (ref: 2015/010)

Asset details:

  • Address: Caldbeck, Wigton, Cumbria, CA7 8EA
  • Locality area: Wigton
  • Date of decision: 7 January 2016
  • Reasons for decision: The Panel concluded that the nomination failed to provide sufficient evidence that the nominating body (being Solway CAMRA branch) met the criteria in the regulations as a voluntary or community body eligible to nominate an asset as asset of community value. On this basis the nomination has been unsuccessful.

Wakefield Road Car Park, Cockermouth (ref: 2015/011)

Asset details:

  • Address: Wakefield Road, Cockermouth, CA13 0HR
  • Locality area: Cockermouth
  • Date of decision: 21 December 2015
  • Reasons for decision: The Panel did not consider that the actual current use of the land nominated as a car park furthers the social wellbeing or social interests of the local community. The land as nominated therefore does not meet the criteria for land of community value as set out in Section 88 of the Localism Act 2011.

United Reform Church, Cockermouth (ref: 2016/001)

Asset details:

  • Address: Main Street, Cockermouth, CA13 9LU
  • Locality area: Cockermouth
  • Date of decision: 7 March 2016
  • Reasons for decision: The Panel considered that the use of the building as a church was a primary use. The first test under the Localism Act 2011 section 88 is not met as the building has a primary use as a church and any community use of the property in this case is ancillary.

West Cumbria Court House (ref: 2015/007)

Asset details:

  • Address: Bridge Street, Workington, CA14 4AS
  • Locality area: Workington
  • Date of listing review decision: 10 February 2016

Asset details:

  • Address: Fellside, Caldbeck, CA7 8HA
  • Locality area: Wigton
  • Date of decision: 18 December 2019
  • Reasons for decision: The Panel considered that the former use of the building as a residential activity centre was a primary use. The first test under the Localism Act 2011 section 88 is not met as there had been no community use of the property.

Princess Street Day Centre (ref: 2019/004)

Asset details:

  • Address: Princess Street, Workington, CA14 2QG
  • Locality area: Workington
  • Date of decision: 3 February 2020
  • Reasons for decision: The Panel considered that the former use of the building as a day centre for a specific group was a primary use. The first test under the Localism Act 2011 section 88 is not met as there had been no community use of the property.

Asset details:

  • Address: Walton, Brampton, CA8 2DH
  • Date of listing decision: 3 June 2020
  • Date listing expires: 3 June 2025
