An application has been lodged to quarry at Glen Creran.
A PROPOSAL to build a quarry in Glen Creran has been dealt a blow by council planners, who argue it is not consistent with the local development plan.
Argyll-based applicant A & L McCrae Ltd, which mines aggregates at Barrachander Quarry near Kilchrenan, lodged a planning application last October to extract and process sand and gravel at Glasdrum, in particular high-quality building sand for which, it argues, there is a shortage in Argyll and Bute.
