A £30 million edible bone processing factory – believed to be the first of its kind in the UK, has moved a major step closer to being built in the Staffordshire Moorlands.
Plans for the plant at Bones Lane, Cheddleton, submitted by Advanced Proteins, were approved by councillors at the Staffordshire Moorlands District Council planning meeting on Thursday.
Despite being approved, there was opposition from Cheddleton residents. 32 letters of objection were received, concerned that problems with noise and smell would get worse with the existing Pointon’s site being nearby.
