Fears have been raised for the future of a historic iron age fort after developers were told a bid to expand the quarry was to be approved on appeal.
Last March, members of the West Dunbartonshire Council planning committee refused planning permission to extend Sheephill Quarry in Milton and increase opening hours, following concerns about the impact the proposals would have on the environment and neighbouring properties.
This included concern that the work would result in the destruction of what remained of Sheephill Quarry fort, an ancient iron age hill fort within the quarry grounds.
