Its a typical Nanny state again! The council (which should of put up a higher fence if there going to call it a H&S issue), should of realised when the planning application was put in, it would be next to a golf coarse and flying balls could be an issue. Also the purchasers of any property for sale on this new development should of realised there might be a likeyhood of balls going near to, or on their property. Anyone intending on purcahasing with an once of brain, it should of been obvious. The club representative should insighting grandfather rights, being there a lot longer than the development, plus insighting the above. I feel sorry for the club and its members, it has really been let down the council all because they don't want to dip into their coffers for a misely new fence. If it was me I would carry on using the full length hole and if any NIMBY from the new development complained, I whould tell them you should of checked this before going ahead on purchasing. So thats why it was dead when I did some filming there on Saturday inbetween filming the Deltic, it was good condictions for a few rounds. Prehaps they hope it will close because no one wants to play there anymore and then build on that too?! Regards Karl.
