Plan to create apartments at Hebden Bridge mill hit by objections
Kirklees Estates has applied to convert part of the stone-built Linden Mill on Linden Road into the 18 apartments, and Calderdale Council’s planning committee will meet on Tuesday next week to discuss the plans.
However, Hebden Royd Town Council has objected and 72 letters have been received by the council opposing the proposals. Three letters of support have also been received.
