On the slopes of the Lickey Hills, this 52 acre site has kept locals entertained for more that 20 years!
Originally proposed by the site owner as a golf course, its quite possible this could have been a ruse to over-tip. Substantially over-tipped to the tune of 1,000,000 cubic tonnes, some three to four times that of the Planning consent. The Lickey Community Group, a local action group, were finally able convinced a somewhat lax Bromsgrove District Council of this illegal activity.
