Pilkington Quarry 83299/09 ………………………. “Comment on the Quarry”

This new application seeks to change the permitted quarrying operation from 2007 to 2042.

We are still questioning why the quarry has been allowed to operate without active planning permission.

We also question why you would need to extend the operational life of a quarry which finished extracting stone over three years ago.

It would be beneficial if you would make your views about this application known to the council – a link can be found on the right hand side of this page.
