A horse riding stables is back in business after winning a David and Goliath battle with Thurrock Council.
Green Trees Farm in Old Hill Avenue, Laindon, had its business on hold after the council issued an enforcement notice earlier in the year.
This notice has now been overturned after a public inquiry was held, it has been revealed.
The news comes after the stables was threatened with closure in August of this year as neighbours felt their business was a nuisance.
The farm, a stables and a cattle farm has been working for more than 30 years and was faced with the notice from the council after it was alleged it had some unauthorised development on the site.
This notice has now been overturned after council officers approved the plans for the livery yard to stay put.
Thurrock Council says it is unaware of a decision being made and was unable to comment.
