Campaigners protest against development at Hencote, a Shrewsbury beauty spot
The plans for 182 units of care accommodation and 75-bed nursing home faced major opposition, with protests when a planning inquiry was held in January. Protestors said the Hencote development would ruin the Winney Hill beauty spot.At Tuesday's town council meeting a petition signed by 320 residents was handed into the meeting by protestor, Mr Ben Jephcott, urging the town council to apply for a judicial review.
"I have taken my grandkids sledging on Winney Hill. The view will be spoilt for future generations. But can we come up with a case that is strong enough and has the credibility to take to a judicial review against the planning inspectorate?"
