had to take their outdoor area down. DCC refused planning permission. Why is it annoying me so much? Well, if you know that stretch a bit, you'll know that the footpath is used as a car park all the way to St Peter's Church. Besides the legality of it, why is it that it's all grand for a footpath to use as a car parking space at all and make it impossible for a business to have seats? There is a serious problem with what our local authorities see as intrusion. I would rather have a coffee outside than have to navigate SUVs as a pedestrian.
