Approval of the details with respect to the access, appearance, landscaping, layout and scale of the development were stated to be reserved matters, for which the approval of the Local Planning Authority should be obtained prior to any commencement of the development.
Permission was granted on the 5th July 2017 under Reference No: 17/01363/S73 for the removal of Condition 5 relating to the requirement to provide two affordable units. Accordingly, the planning permission provides for the provision of six market houses.

drain laid in the land to the north of the site, and
