The hugely popular Dunnottar Castle wants a visitor centre but its owners say it needs to build 10 houses on greenfield land to fund the project.
The main concept is about the conflict between developing a tourist attraction and local planning concerns.
George Pearson, the owner of Dunnottar Castle, wants to build a £3.5 million visitor center to accommodate the growing number of tourists attracted to the site. However, he needs to build 10 houses on greenfield land to fund the project, which has been rejected by planners.
The planners believe the visitor center would be beneficial, but they oppose building houses on undeveloped land. This highlights the tension between economic development and environmental preservation.
