Wedding venue owner in fight to avoid shutdown );

A WOMAN is appealing against an order to shut down an unauthorised wedding and party venue.
Penny Holley, who owns The Copse in Mill Lane, Kidmore End, began hosting functions for up to 120 people in 2016.
Three years later, she was ordered to stop after neighbours complained to South Oxfordshire District Council, the planning authority.
The council said she could still offer holiday lets to smaller groups, as she had been doing for years with permission, but issued an enforcement notice banning other uses.
It ordered her to remove a “dining platform”, an area of decking with a marquee which it says was built without consent, and tear down a wall of hay bales which she erected as a sound barrier.
