Aren't they still fighting with some of the locals about whether or not this will go ahead because of the noise issues?

[Dslam]

The hearing was adjourned for some reason but Mallory have the same noise and use issues that a lot of venues have. People move into the village and start complaining about stuff that's been happening there for donkeys years.
I think the festival is Ok for this year but who knows what the future holds.
