Just been reading in Lewes News about the new cinema and arts complex proposed for Harvey's depot, late 2014.

AT LAST - a proper cinema in Lewes !!!!! I can't wait. Conditional on planning consent , but what's to object ? This is very very GOOD NEWS !

And it looks great too (see at the plans and 3D graphics on the SD planning web site). At least three (4?) screens (3D surround sound etc), meeting rooms, bars, cafe, outdoor terrace, huge bicycle rack. It looks rather more than just a cinema and could become a real focal point for Lewes.

Currently my family goes to the Picture House at Uckfield, which is OK but it is Uckfield and it is only a bog standard cinema. I can't wait to be able to go to this instead.

My initial concern on seeing the plans is the lack of landscaping/ greenery around the depot area. Softening the view of the exterior is, I think, very important in helping a modern building fit into a townscape.

Always good to have more greenery.

Belladonna, would you please recheck that link as it leads to a 404 not found.

Thanks.

That link doesn't seem to be working either, Rods Tiger.

The application reference is SDNP/13/03178/PRE. Copy/pasting that into the search box on the planning page of SDNP's site is probably the easiest way to get to the right page.

Maybe the proposal for a cinema on the North Street/Phoenix site would be better??

Visit here: h++p://planningpublicaccess.southdowns.gov.uk/online-applications/
Use the search on the left (Search - Simple Search), NOT the search in the top right.
Paste in SDNP/13/03178/PRE and select 'documents'

The one that was proposed for the Phoenix was a developers sop... a badly thought-out building included solely to make the development more accessible to the planners. The Depot on the other hand, is much more than a cinema.
