A petition supporting a Ryton cafe which has been threatened with closure has amassed more than 800 signatures in under a day.
The future of Fed and Watered, a cafe on Middle Hedgefield Farm on Stella Road, has been brought into question after Gateshead Council refused the eatery retrospective planning permission.
The cafe was built during the pandemic, however, Gateshead Council has deemed it an infringement on the green belt and a traffic hazard, something the owners of the cafe and Jack and Jo's Nursery Garden deny.
