MANY residents of Droitwich will remember, with fond memories, the Worcestershire Hotel in Droitwich, a fine building which was abandoned by its owners and left to fall into a state of disrepair over a period of about 16 years and then demolished and sold for redevelopment.

Are we now going to experience the same thing with the Raven?

Apparently the plans for refurbishment and redevelopment of the site have been abandoned owing to the rapidly deteriorating state of the Raven which makes the whole development untenable.

If this is the case can the current owners please secure the site as there are already squatters using the derelict garages and the car parks as a race track.
