Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect that the variation of the condition would have on the living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring properties with particular regard to noise
  • The effect on the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB)

What decided it

The harm to the living conditions of neighbouring residents from noise during extended early morning and evening operating hours outweighed the economic and social benefits of the proposal.
