The protracted row over a controversial housing development on the Newcastle Quayside looks set to reach a conclusion next month.
The date has been set for a court hearing at Newcastle Moot Hall after city council bosses decided to mount a legal challenge in a bid to stop almost 300 new riverside flats being built on the Plot 12 site.
That move came after proposals for a 14-storey apartment complex on the long-vacant site were rejected back in 2021, but the decision was overturned by a Government planning inspector following a public inquiry earlier this year.
