Dinton Pastures Country Park in Hurst, Wokingham, has applied for a premises licence at Wokingham Borough Council. It comes after the authority recently announced the site was becoming a licensed wedding venue. Councillors are set to decide whether the licence can be granted after a neighbour objected to the scheme. Managers of the 350-acre site want to be open from 6am to 11pm, selling alcohol, playing live music, films, plays and dance performances from 10am.
