HAVE A SAY... Daw Mill Colliery, which is now closed, and where Harworth Estates is proposing a number of new developments which will be explained at a consultation event taking place tomorrow. NNNA

Comments (0) MEMBERS of the community are invited to go along to an event where they can have their say.

A consultation event is to be staged to discuss the future of the former Daw Mill Colliery Site at Arley Community Centre in Gun Hill tomorrow from 4pm to 8pm.

"Harworth Estates wants to invite members of the local community to a public consultation event to show their emerging plans for the former Daw Mill Colliery site," said a spokesperson for North Borough Council.

Following the closure of the mine as a result of an underground fire in February 2013 and the work undertaken with the Coal Authority to make the site safe and secure, Harworth Estates has worked with Borough Council, Warwickshire County Council and other statutory regulators on a plan for the most appropriate long-term use of the site.

The spokesperson added: "Harworth Estates believe that the most appropriate use of the site is to develop employment and storage uses - utilising some of its remaining infrastructure."

This includes a high power supply, an existing road and drainage infrastructure and an operational railhead.

A planning application will be prepared for the site with input from technical advisers, local councils and local people following the consultation event.

It is anticipated that a planning application will be submitted to North Warwickshire Borough Council in May 2014.

The Harworth Estates team will be on hand to discuss the proposal and any comments, queries or suggestions people may have.

A feedback form will be available to fill in at the event, or it can be sent by March 28 to: Harworth Estates, AMP Technology Centre, Waverley, Rotherham, South Yorkshire, S60 5WG.
