No agreement has been reached in the council’s attempts to buy Maidenhead Golf Club out of its lease, the chairman has insisted, despite rumours to the contrary.
Speculation on social media over the possible sale, which the Advertiser understands could be worth more than £14million, emerged this week. The lease has 23 years to run and the council has earmarked the 150-acre site for a potential 1,200 homes.
Chairman Brian McGinley said a joint statement will be given by the club and the Royal Borough, but that is unlikely until after next week.
He said: “We have not sent any documents. We are still in discussions. Things are clearly progressing.”
Mr McGinley said there was nothing new to add after his statements given to the Advertiser last week.
He added: “We are inundated with rumours. We are still as we were.”
