Agenda item

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

The following spoke under the public participation at meetings scheme:

·         Cllr M Goodridge, Chair of Wetton Parish Council, Objector

·         Mr P Atkinson, Applicant.

In response to Members’ queries officers stated that the Highway Authority had been consulted but had not raised any issues and that although the structural appraisal didn’t specifically refer to the foundations of the barn it did state the walls can support rebuilding.

The recommendation for approval subject to conditions was moved and seconded.  It was agreed to include additional conditions to limit permitted development,  including for external lighting, the dry stone wall to be extended round the car parking area and access tracks, existing wall materials to be reused and approval of gate details.  The motion was then voted on and carried.
