Plans for Elterwater Quarry given green light after Judicial Review
An appeal against initial approval of planning permissions for a major new adventure attraction at the heart of the Lake District has been dismissed.
The project aims to allow visitors to explore parts of the cavern that had been previously inaccessible for a ‘heritage-based adventure experience’.
Plans include installing platforms in the caves at points of interest with visitors travelling from one platform to another via zipline.
Following a two-day hearing in April, The High Court of Justice Planning Court has released its findings and has upheld the decision made by the Lake District National Park Authority.
