Have you objected to the planning application?
Not yet, and I'm not sure that I would necessarily object as I've not had the time to sit down and read it in detail to understand exactly what is proposed and how it might affect the area. I will try and comprehend the needless legal mumbo jumbo that seems prerequisite for such things, and prefer to form opinions based on as much available information as possible.
I felt it pertinent to post details here though as it is in relatively close proximity to an area that many regular posters use for bouldering/climbing/MTBing.
