Couple apply to keep helicopter pad

A couple from Maughold have applied for retrospective planning permission to keep a helicopter landing pad at their home.

Alan and Ann Potts of Corony Bridge have asked planners to let them keep a helipad they built in their garden.

In their application, they say Mrs Potts is taken to hospital for treatment by charter aircraft and they didn't know they needed permission for the concrete pad.

They say they'd need to use the landing area for less than the 28 days a year currently allowed by UK planning laws.
