At that time Rancio, was it still Cleethorpes council, when it had it's own council, separate to Grisby, and before N E Lincs? Don't think it would make a difference though,  I think the club would struggle to get any kind of planning permission.

Quoted from ska face
I understand additional storeys on top of existing football stands are now classed as permitted development, subject to the materials being of a similar appearance to the existing.


They would still have to get past objections from local residents if the skyline was heightened. It would be quite easy for any pressure group to whip up resistance against this with the argument "Mainstand today, Osmond and Pontoon to come. Thin end of the wedge" Do you think a Mainstand the same height as The Youngs would be given planning permission because I seriously doubt it.

Quoted from Sigone
The council are looking to build a multi storey car park in grant street, match days it could be made free to park, with park and ride funded by the club.  A  new main stand with a modern roof would not give any issues to viewing from the back no matter how high it could be.


The last time I sat in the Main Stand was a reserve game, when Bradley Woods made perhaps his first appearance.

So, I cannot remember why views are restricted, is it due to the roof or the elevation of the seats?
If it is the roof, could not a front section be constructed with a different angle, without making it higher than the top?

Don’t worry, was just a little planning joke.

People have a right to light under planning, but that doesn't stop stuff being built at height. I remember the pressure group down Seacroft road complaining long and loud about the development on the old Winter Gardens site, but it went ahead.

If the council approve planning, I'm sure the residents of Harrington St. will lodge a complaint, but they have to have an extremely strong case to stop any subsequent works from going ahead. There is already a precedent set with the pre existing stand. They bought those houses knowing what was at the bottom of their gardens.

That's fine. The thing is though that a lot of posters on here get an idea about some kind of plan or other and never look at the next stage. As an example I have heard so many suggestions about using Docks/New Clee Station for visiting fans without realising that Network Rail will never put money into these for 23 days of the year at most.

The stations are already there though. You can request stop at them if you ask nicely.

Unless it has changed then that only applies to the Barton train. TPE and the Lincoln service do not use it as a request stop. As an example if Stockport fans wanted to come by train then they cannot use Docks or New Clee stations.

But you have to have planning permission to demolish a building and change the use of the land.


Not if you live down Humberston Ave. A developer bought a house and demolished it the next day to provide access for the development. The council stated the house will be rebuilt as they did not having planning permission to demolish it! Never happened! And there's a nice road!



You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time
