Tonight from BBC West The Cheddar Report
Cheddar, famous for cheese and strawberries and for the Gorge which is the outstanding natural feature of the Mendips, faces a dilemma. A lime kiln built in the quarry at Batts Combe, a hill that overlooks the village, is noisy and spreads dust over the nearby countryside.
