Scores of residents have objected to plans to redevelop a West Sussex mushroom farm.

Developers Sussex Mushrooms want to build 146 homes at the site in Thakeham, near Pulborough.

Horsham District Council has received 187 objections to the proposal, with a further 218 in favour.

The plans for the 67-hectare Chesswood mushroom farm will be discussed at a council meeting tomorrow.

Council officers have recommended they be approved.

Last week the developers said the plans would secure 480 jobs.

The meeting will be held from 11am tomorrow in North Street, Horsham.
