Gateforth Mushroom Farm, Selby - Change of Use to Travelling Showpeople's Quarters

Paul Brown QC successfully obtained planning permission and a full award of costs against the Council at this inquiry into refusal of permission for the change of use of a former mushroom farm into permanent quarters for Travelling Showpeople. The application had been refused by Selby District Council (against their officers' recommendation) on grounds relating to landscape impact, highways and groundwater contamination.
