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.

The May 6 elections saw three Norwich seats turn red to green - the first time County Hall has had Green councillors since 2017 - and the party regained a city council seat from an independent.

Stopping the controversial Norwich Western Link will be their priority at County Hall, say newly-elected Green county councillors.
Jamie Osborn took Mancroft, Ben Price won in Thorpe Hamlet and Paul Neale triumphed in Nelson.
And Mr Osborn said their number one priority was to put pressure on the council to scrap the mooted £153m Western Link road.

in 2016, that road was made one of the Conservative-controlled council s priorities and the council s cabinet agreed a preferred route from the A1067 travelling between Weston Longville and Ringland.
