Norwich's Junkyard Market has been granted permission to remain in place for 12 months - by the narrowest of margins.
The decision came down to the casting vote of Norwich City Council’s planning committee chairman - after councillors heard complaints from some of its neighbours.
The pop-up food and drinks market, based in the car park of St Mary's Works, runs on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays.
But there are limits on how often it can operate over a year, so Afterdark Promotions sought permission from City Hall to temporarily change the use from a car park to an outdoor events venue/food market for 12 months.
