It seems odd that the comapny that wants to close the Hereford Arms appears not to be trading itself. A quick check on Companies House website reveals that Alderbourne Limited are registered as a dormant company. Odd then that they seem to be trading by putting in a planning application for change of use as well as collecting the rent for the pub and others which they own. Perhaps Alaistar Darlings huge department of Customs and Inland Revenue would like to look into the accounts of Alderbourne and see if the company is really "dormant" or not?

Regarding The Hereford Pub and Alderbourne Limited, trading whilst still claiming to be a Dormant company. Any member of the public can complain to the Registrar of Companies about this and he will be obliged to carry out an investigation, as it is illegal under the terms of the Companies Act to do this. Go to www.companieshouse.gov.uk for contact details on how to do this.
