Council sourceThe proposals seek planning permission for the demolition of the existing dwelling Tree Tops and the erection of 3 no. modestly sized bungalows within the overall application site that still retained The Bungalow as a separate plot of land. The proposed scheme would utilize the existing vehicle accessways but would seek to layout a public pavement round the site's frontage along the sweep of School Lane. Adjacent to each proposed bungalow would be a single bay timber framed car port.
