I REFER to your issue of Wednesday May 20 re the New Forest council refusing permission to Otter Nurseries to open a garden centre and coffee shop.
As there is a very successful plant centre on the site already, I can’t see the reason behind this refusal decision.
I would think the council would be grateful to anyone taking on this enormous site and paying council tax, rather than let those enormous greenhouses fall into decay.
I think of the jobs this proposed use of the site would make.
