Polperro, through which runs the River Pol, is 7 miles east of Fowey and 4 miles west of the neighbouring town of Looe and is a noted tourist destination, particularly in the summer months, for its idyllic appearance with tightly-packed ancient fishermen's houses which survive almost untouched, its quaint harbour and attractive coastline. Polperro Community Council has overall responsibility for the well being of the Polperro community. Polperro Community Council wants to revitalise and promote the use of an open public space at the heart of our village known as Big Green. Our residents, businesses and tourist visitors will all benefit. Our planned development will make the space more attractive and safer to use for a wide variety of projects and events. The traditional "village green" area of Polperro had been lost to the community for over 175 years when it was sold for development along with other land owned by the nearby Manor. The site currently represents a riverside mostly cobbled area including seating, planting and a Celtic cross monument. It lies adjacent to the Grade II Listed Saxon Bridge, in relatively close proximity to a small number of Listed Buildings (all Grade II) and is situated centrally within the historic village of Polperro and the Polperro Conservation Area. A heritage impact assessment carried out as part of the current planning process concluded that: "the proposed refurbishment of Big Green will result in a Positive Effect on the character of the Conservation Area, due in large part to the currently rather shabby nature and dated appearance of the public open space". Since planning consent was gained in 2019 conditions attached to it relating to possible contamination of the land due to its historic uses have been complied with in full and reached a positive outcome. The project is the full refurbishment of the Big Green as per planning applications PA22/05274 \| Listed Building Consent for refurbishment including new paving, shelter/stage building, stepped link to community room balcony, seat/planter, riverside promenade, relocation of Celtic cross, remodelling of junction to bridge, relocation of electric cupboard, new street furniture and provision of cafe seating areas.
