Preesall quarry: Residents launch protest over controversial plans for site

Mr Baxter, who owns the land, has applied to Lancashire Council for approval for a scoping document which would enable exploratory work to be undertaken on the site, prior to any full planning application.

This led to the Preesall Council calling an extraordinary meeting which was then attended by more than 80 residents – a major turn-out for a town council meeting. Coun Kath Shepherd, chairman of Preesall Town Council and also Mayor of Preesall, said: “As a council we have contacted Lancashire County Council with our response."We are totally opposed even to the scoping document application and we have promised to keep residents informed of all developments."I’ve had people in tears phoning me, really worried about what this will mean for their homes here.

"In all my years we have never seen so many attend – that just shows the level of concern over this issue.”
