Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the variation of conditions 1, 2 and 3 would be acceptable with regard to the living conditions of neighbours and the amenity of the area

What decided it

The noise mitigation measures (concrete walling to 3m and 6m heights) would reduce noise from the crusher and mechanical screener to acceptable levels that would not significantly change the acoustic character of the area or harm the living conditions of the nearest neighbours at Cedar Farm and South Tinkers Hole Farm.
