It is only to be expected that there would be opposition to the plans to convert a former pub in Caol into flats.
Some people, quite understandably, would prefer to see the building restored as licensed premises, given how important that type of business can be to a community.
Indeed, the fact that 160 people signed the petition ‘Stop Lochaber bar becoming flats’ is illustrative of the strength of feeling among many in that part of town.
