Battle lines are being drawn in Aughton over controversial plans to develop a Smithy Lane farm.

Dobson's of Scarisbrick are seeking permission for a new access and track to the property with a number of locals attending November's parish council meeting to express their concerns over the move.

One local, Ken Morgan, has produced his own 'dossier' detailing numerous objections that's now also been passed to council planners.

Thanking all those concerned for their attendance, PC Chairman John Waugh told parish councillors: "We now have the ammunition to fight this proposal."
