Possibility of "Middleton Lodge Quarry Development"

Of immediate concern is the potential prospect of being faced with another, more visible, quarry on our doorstep. A newsletter inviting the people of Barton to the 31 May meeting ably detailed the possible affect on Barton - to summarise:

  • Increased dust emissions falling in the prevailing westerly winds
  • Increased traffic
  • Disruption to wildlife
  • Disruption to watercourses
  • Devaluation of property
  • Increased noise of blasting

Whilst any planning decision will probably discount the 'property' point it is a fair comment worth bearing in mind - all of the above will affect Barton in one way or another.
