Partly Hidden



The village of Dore nestles cosily below Blacka Moor. When the mist helpfully veils the depressing bulk of King Ecgbert's School, Dore can look an inviting place. But if planning decisions are not challenged more effectively than to date it could easily become just another slice of urban sprawl. Recently the chief area of concern is the ease with which permission is granted for disproportionately large buildings on the site of much smaller ones that have been demolished.
