28 July 2008
The Peak District National Park Authority has been granted permission to appeal against a High Court decision over alleged harmful quarrying on Longstone Edge, near Bakewell.
Judges in London decided today (Mon July 28) that both the national park authority and the Department for Communities and Local Government had a case that should be heard by the Court of Appeal.
They also agreed the case should be heard quickly - possibly before the end of this year.
