Interesting.....

I see that the proposal address is Much Wenlock..the place has an interesting abbey to visit and on one of the pillars to the Mediaeval town hall are shackles for naughty people.
But perhaps it should be better known as the town that created the modern Olympiad in the latter part of the 19thC.
Close by is Bridgnorth, Nige...and you should be already aware of that town's association to the Servern Valley Railway.
Another snippet...is a group of solicitors in the town called Dolittle & Dally....true!
Up the road is Ironbridge and Coalbrookdale....apart from being famous for the Abraham Derby's, Richard Trevithick's first loco, 'The Coalbrookdale' ...the first steam engine to run on rails..was built and ran on a circilar track in the area.

One question that could be asked.....since the proposed site in on the extreme periphery of West Lindsey Council (Lincs CC)- is the council obliged to receive objections from folks who reside in North Lincs?
