Fylde Borough Council appointed Randall Thorp to assist them with a conjoined planning appeal for  four separate planning applications around the village of Wrea Green.

Dick Longdin prepared evidence in respect of the impact upon landscape and townscape character and views. He attended the Planning Inquiry for two weeks as expert witness for the Local Planning Authority and was cross examined by all four developer teams.

The Planning Inspector’s report agreed with the Randall Thorp evidence that there would be detrimental impact on landscape and townscape character and views (at varying levels) for each scheme. The Inspector found in favour of our client and all four appeals were refused.
