Bank Top currently has planning permission for 13ha (with actual working area of 9.1ha due to peripheral constraints) over 32 years ending in 2019 beyond the plan period. There is therefore no need to make provision in the Local Plan for a further quarry extension of 9.8ha with its presumption of planning permission. It is also important that the rate of extraction is not speeded up by such a presumption when the long term needs for stone needs to be considered
