It is because of new Health and Safety rules, brought out (I think) by the EEC regarding new development also change of use, of anything within a certain distance of a hazardous 'chemical' plant, this plant would have been moved years ago, it has nothing in it's favour, bad access etc, the only reason it is there is because it is licensed to produce Arsenic. Could you imagine any local authority giving planning permission for that, and other obnoxious activities that take place at this plant. Also you have the stinking bone yard 100 metres down the road, a hotel is a joke, homeless people would not stop there. Remember 'Bophal'?
