  • Marlow Film Studios plots appeal to overturn rejection of £750m project

    Media

    Marlow Film Studios is set to appeal Buckinghamshire Council’s decision to block its £750m film studio development, a project backed by high-profile Hollywood figures, including Avatar director James Cameron. Morning Wire understands the Studios expects to lodge the appeal with the Planning Inspectorate in early September, though the exact timing is subject to the vagaries [...]

    The council rejected the application in May over concerns about the project's potential to cause "visual harm" to the former quarry site.
