Cllr D Chapman left the room as he had declared a prejudicial interest in this application.

 

It was noted that Members had visited the site on the previous day.

 

The Planning officer reported that a letter had been received from a neighbour which expressed concern regarding further use of the ground (paddock) for building development and asked for confirmation that the land was agricultural land.  They also requested that the original field gate be reinstated and the additional gate denied.  The Planning officer stated that the paddock was not part of the curtilage.
