We live in a crowded country and to say we had to fight to get planning permission would be an understatement

The club were I shoot in France had all sort of problems with neighbours that moved there recently knowing full well the proximity to the ranges.
I believe Holland has only 1 open-air range for the whole country...
"noise pollution" is battle we will not win...

a new range where guns need to be 'relatively' quiet or no range

a range :good:

Good job.

Pricing is relative, some people will be able to afford and some won't. The fact that you have set up a new range in the UK in this day and age is an amazing achievement IMO. Looks good and well done.

Well done. Great to see a new facility online to enable us to continue our sport. If I'm ever in the area I'll be dropping by, even if just to have a nosey and say hello.
