Summary
The applicant proposes a 1.8-metre-high metal security fence with two access gates. It would be built at the Hydro Aluminium site on Durham Road. A property is directly adjacent to the south-east, with Londis also nearby. Eleven property fronts have a clear view towards the site, while 131 are screened by buildings. The fence could change the site's appearance and may screen some views into the factory grounds.
