Plans have been submitted to expand the JLR (Jaguar Land Rover) Experience in Ledbury

Plans to expand an off-road driving experience in a "sensitive" area of Herefordshire have been submitted.

The JLR (Jaguar Land Rover) Experience in Ledbury plans to upgrade and extend the off-road driving course in the grounds of Eastnor Castle.

Eastnor Castle Estates Company applied in December for an environmental impact assessment (EIA) along with plans for a new track, inclines, articulations, and something known as the "Twisted Toblerone".

According to the official Land Rover UK website, the site "sits nestled amongst 5,000 acres of stunning Herefordshire countryside and woodland on the private estate of Eastnor Castle".

This news was gathered by the Local Democracy Reporting Service which covers councils and other public service organisations.
