Extension 1. The application is for a renewal of an identical application that was approved in 2016. 2. The site currently accommodates a small house and two sheds. It is bounded by residential property on two sides, a paddock to the rear and is on the residential fringe of Westleton. The prevailing scale in the neighbourhood is varied with traditional one and two storey dwellings with one much larger property next door. 3. The existing house is to be extended to provide a single storey garage and an additional bedroom and ground floor bathroom to make the accommodation more modern and flexible. 4. The proposed dwelling will have no openings onto neighbouring properties and is screened by hedges and fences with the principal trees and boundary hedging and fencing being retained. 5. Highway access, bin and oil storage will be unchanged. 6. The exception is to increase the height of the existing perimeter willow fence to up to 3 meters (to graduate up after a minimum of 4 meters from the roadway) along the boundary between the cottage and the new building next door to improve privacy for both buildings following the new build increasing the land elevation in their back garden and increased scale of overlooking windows. 7. External materials are limited to brick and tiling compatible with local styles. 8. No biodiversity issues are presented by the proposals. 9. The site has been checked for contamination in 2017 and 2019 with no issues being found. 10. The site is not within a Conservation Area and the building is not listed.

Demolition of rear single storey element. Erection of single storey side and rear extension to dwelling. Conversion of existing outbuilding at west boundary to provide ancillary residential accommodation comprising sleeping accommodation. Relocation of existing oil tank.

We are looking to improve the existing playground which currently caters for Under 7s only and is over 17 years old. We are looking to install either a Nest Swing or a Pendulum Swing, a small pyramid climbing net or a multiplay, plus a 4 low level spinning items and an inclusive play piece. A sensory garden is also hoped to be built. None of the items will be over 4m and there is a large distance between the play area and nearest residential boundary. We are applying to Viridor for funding of £50,000, with a deadline of 19 July (which we also need to submit planning outcome to) Once we know what funding we have, we will be able to choose the exact items.

Change of use and conversion of an agricultural barn (which has been granted prior approval under Class Q) and surrounding land to a single residential dwelling with garden and associated landscaping and boundary treatments.
