Castle Drive Tank Farm-redevelopment with flats
The area concerned (acknowledgements to Google Earth)
While Falmouth Civic Society recognises the importance of the Docks and associated activities to the economic well-being of Falmouth and to the continuation of its maritime traditions, it also has a great concern for its beautiful and historic landscape and amenities. We therefore believe that plans which Falmouth Oil Services Ltd (FOS) are considering, to build flats on the area occupied currently by their Castle Drive tank farm, need careful consideration. The tanks in this area are reaching the end of their useful life and FOS wish to build alternative facilities within the Dock Area - a move which we would support. However, in order to raise capital for this replacement, FOS wish to use the Castle Drive site for a residential development which causes the Committee some concern . If you have any views on the use of the site for the construction of flats, the committee would be most grateful to receive your comments. Please e-mail or write to our Secretary, John Stanley.
