Story: Douglas Johnson
Residents affected by an unauthorised scrapyard on Cooks Wood Road took their case to a planning committee and the Council has agreed enforcement action.
Council officers had investigated and agreed the land needed planning permission before it could be used for storing damaged cars. As well as the unsightly fence and gates residents could be affected by noise nuisance. The Committee agreed planning officers could take enforcement action to remove the cars and stop use of the site as a business. However, they could do nothing about the trees that had been removed.
The Council also agreed they should investigate the right of way through to Pinfold Lane, which had always been used as a footpath.
