PLANNING: Permission was granted under Application Number 1/0636/2009/FUL and dated 1st September 2010. (See Torridge District Council website for documents and plans).

The Planning Permission is now considered to be extant following excavation and pouring of the foundations for at least one of the plots in 2012 and the Building Regulations Acceptance of Building Notice issued 13th September 2012 following the payment to Torridge District Council in the sum of £2,277 including vat.

The Section 106 Agreement dated 10th August 2010 providing for an Education contribution, been paid in full.

The scheme provides for a terrace of 4 cottages each providing a living room, kitchen and internal WC to the ground floor plus 2 bedrooms (1 double and 1 single) and bathroom to the first floor.

There is provision for front and rear gardens, allocated storage sheds and bin stores.

There will be pedestrian access only off North Road.

Additionally there will be 2 street fronted terraced cottages with 3 bedroom and 2 bedroom arrangement, rear gardens, rear pedestrian access and allocated stores each with North Road street frontage.

The scheme will require part of the accommodation within Number 28 North Road at ground floor level to be taken out to provide a covered pedestrian access from North Road to the terrace of 4 cottages and rear accesses to the 3 dwellings with frontage to North Road.

In effect this would remove the existing kitchen and store from Number 28.

An enclosed rear garden could then be created with gated side entrance and rear store.

Plans also provide for a further communal garden/play area to the north of the site.

Mains electricity and water are currently connected. Mains gas is considered to be available within North Road. Plans provide for the provision of a pump station to the rear of the site for drainage to the North Road main sewer.
