COLNE residents have pledged to continue their fight to ensure a grocery firm does not disrupt their sleep.

People living near Wellock’s, at Whiteholme Mill in Skipton Old Road, have been engaged in a battle with the fruit and vegetable merchants.

This has resulted in a series of meetings recently, between public agencies and Wellocks representatives, to tackle noise, pollution and planning issues.

Neighbours are still unhappy and say cardboard is being recycled there late at night.

But Lancashire County Council has investigated and been told the cardboard is only being stored on lorries and not processed.

Neil Watson, Pendle council’s planning manager, has pledged to raise the issue again with the county council and Wellock’s.

An inquiry was also done by the Environment Agency, into whether bio-diesel was being manufactured there.
