A planning inspector has ordered a contractor to remove all its vehicles from land owned by Hoo Zoo following a row with Telford & Wrekin Council.

The council has been locked in an argument with the tourist attraction for over three years after receiving a complaint about the use of land in a wooded area to the east of Hoo Zoo.

Telford & Wrekin Council alleged that without planning permission the use of the land has changed to a ‘landscape contractor's storage yard’ with the siting of storage containers and the laying of stone and hardcore. “While the appellant does not argue that the alleged breach of planning has not occurred, they do contest that the land included in the notice far exceeds what is actually in use on the ground as a storage yard for the landscaping business,” he concluded.

“Views into the site are limited to those from the access road at the point of the entrance. In this respect the site is sufficiently screened so not to have a harmful visual effect on its surroundings.” “Moreover, the letter from Mr Tranter describes his area of operation being the West Midlands with examples of local jobs for Homes England and ongoing maintenance work for Taylor Wimpey sites both locally and throughout the West Midlands.

“The appellant states that the stone and hardcore areas within the site have been in situ for several years and having seen how they are enveloped into the woodland floor I have no reason to disagree,” the inspector found.
