The Approval:

Single storey rear and side extensions following demolition of the existing sheds at the rear of the property to accommodate seating and restaurant facility to the current public house. First floor and side and rear extensions to convert into two self-contained units. Parking facilities, amenity and outdoor seating for the public house.

Site Overview:

The Derehams Inn has historically formed part of the local social fabric, operating for many years as a traditional public house serving both the village and the wider Loudwater and High Wycombe area. Its position on Derehams Lane, together with on-site parking, has historically made it a convenient and well-used destination for food, drink and social gatherings.

While the public house has more recently become vacant, the building retains a strong presence within the streetscape and benefits from a layout and plot size well suited to modern, food-led hospitality. The approved scheme builds upon this established use, allowing the property to be sensitively refurbished and extended, securing its future as a public house while responding to contemporary dining expectations.

The current site:

The site comprises a detached two storey former public house set on Derehams Lane, with on-site parking to the rear. The property is currently vacant and in run-down condition, offering clear scope for redevelopment in accordance with the approved scheme.

The site has a large car park to the rear, with access toward the side of the building providing eight car parking spaces for visitors of the now closed Public House. The approval increases to 10 spaces, EV charging stations, dedicated spaces for disabled users and bicycle capacity
