The council can and is fighting planning applications to develop pub (and their car park) sites for housing. If the site isn't in a Conservation Area though the owners don't need planning permission for demolishing the pub. This makes the council's position of reverting to original usage harder to enforce when the original pub isn't there any more. At best it delays the process enough to make it less attractive to other developers at other sites, though this may still be an optimistic view. See Image and Image
