A cricket club had gone to court to oppose the granting of planning permission for an extension and first-floor flat to be built over an old forge next to its ground and Robert Fookes, appearing for the club, told Justice Beverley Lang in the High Court last week that one of the objections was that the forge was very close to the pitch, the Daily Express reported.
