Next Wednesday the case against Shropshire Council's granting of planning permission for homes on of a patch of land in Greenfields Recreation Ground will be heard at the Supreme Court in London.

Greenfields Community Group has been involved in a legal battle over the wrongful £550,000 sale of a patch of land in Greenfields Recreation Ground, Shrewsbury.

As they await their date with destiny, Dr Peter Day, who has led the legal challenge for the campaign group, said they never wanted to have to take it this far. This week, the group called on Shropshire Council to reveal its legal fees to find out how much the battle is costing county taxpayers.
