Arguments for and against a new visitor centre and housing near the famous Dunmore Pineapple will be made at a special hearing for a second time next week.
The quirky landmark, near the village of Airth in Falkirk district, is one of the area's most recognisable attractions.
But the folly has never had a visitor centre and applicant George Russell Construction Ltd believes better facilities, including a cafe and toilets and improved parking, will be real asset to the area.
