A CONTROVERSIAL scheme to build industrial sized polytunnels at a farm in Redmarley has been approved / refused by Forest planners.

The scheme to erect around 50 acres of polytunnels, a new sedimentation pond and two reservoirs to assist the growing of asparagus, has been submitted to the planning authority along with a request to move an existing bridleway that runs through Redhill Farm at Bromsberrow,

The application was withdrawn from the January meeting to allow Dymock Parish Council more time to consider the proposals.
