'Clapton's Club' demolition plans submitted

PLANS have been submitted to demolish “Clapton’s Club” in Chiddingfold, near Haslemere, and build a smaller function room and 13 new homes on the large site.

In its glory days, the Chiddingfold Club in Woodside Road had 3,000 members and hosted concerts by Eric Clapton and Genesis, plus regular Radio One DJ disco nights.

It is still a popular live music venue, but membership has dwindled to 300 and the cash-strapped committee wants to build an enabling development to fund a smaller hall.

The proposed club would have a capacity of more than 150 and a smaller car park with 16 spaces.
