Residents opposed to a 'huge' polytunnel, built on fields overlooking Argal reservoir without planning permission, say they have no confidence in Cornwall Council getting it removed.
People from Treverva near Penryn attended a residents' meeting in the village hall last week chaired by ward councillor David Saunby and Budock parish councillor Philip Burnett to vent their feelings about the polytunnel and length of time it was taking to do anything about it.
They are concerned that no action is being taken to remove the "industrial size" structure, which they say ruins the view of Argal Reservoir and is built in a green buffer zone opposite Argal View without planning permission. One resident described it as being "an eyesore from every direction."
Concerns were also raised that the entrance and exit to the site was dangerous, coming out onto a 40mph road. "We are fed up with it and we want something done" one resident told the meeting. "We feel like we are banging our heads against a brick wall."
