Nessfield Scheme rejected - again

We understand that Government planning inspectors have again rejected the appeal by developers who want to build flats on the Nessfield site.

Local residents have consistently opposed a large scale three-story development, because of it excessive scale and mass. Hundreds signed a petition to stop the scheme and successfully presented their case to the Council's Planning Committee.

All three Lib Dem Councillors who have backed residents' protests are delighted by the inspector's decision. We congratulate Ted Parker and his team for their valiant efforts.
