McMullens pub update

We recently got in touch with McMullens to find out when they plan to start work on building the pub in Cambourne next to the new hotel. A representative said:

“The pub was delayed due to the (non) development of the hotel. The previous developers had not fulfilled their obligations to prepare the site and we were unable to start until this was resolved, then Covid hit. We have 8 other developments that have subsequently been delayed due to Covid but we are back on site and working through those in 2021. With a fair wind, we would hope to be on site in Cambourne, late 2021 or in 2022.”

McMullens will keep in contact when their plans become clear and timelines firmer.

McCarthy Stone (High Street/Monkfield Lane) shop unit update

There has been some confusion and misinformation going around regarding the current development of the retirement home with 3 shop units below. A representative at McCarthy Stone has confirmed:

“There has always been 3 retail units proposed as part of our development and can confirm they have already been constructed. We are currently finalising lease terms with tenants at the moment but cannot confirm whom yet.”

They will be speaking to Sales & Marketing director to find out how the wrong information was given out and prevent it from happening again.
