Site Location and Description The application site is located on the northern side of the B4393 highway, to the east of the dwelling known as Bear House and to the north east of the cluster of properties within the detached settlement boundary. The site is agricultural land bound by a hedgerow on the eastern boundary and a fence along the northern boundary. The application is submitted in outline with access to be considered at the outline stage for the erection of up to eight detached dwellings and construction of vehicular access with various indicative scales as set out below: Two, three bedroom semi-detached houses (82 square metres, 11.5m x 9m); Three, four bedroom detached houses (122 square metres, 8.1m x 9m); Two, four bedroom detached houses (140 square metres, 8.1m x 11m); and One, five bedroom detached house (195 square metres, 11.3 x 12.1m). Eaves heights would be approximately 4.8m with ridge heights up to 9m. Double garages would be up to 35 square metres (6m x 6m) with eaves heights of 2.2m and ridge heights of 5.35m. It is indicated that the dwellings would be constructed using red brick under grey tile or slated roofs. The indicative layout indicates that access would be gained off the B4393 highway with an adoptable road leading to a private drive providing access, turning and parking facilities. The application site has an area of 0.66 hectares. Consultee Response Bausley with Criggion Community Council Further to this application, Council have reviewed this application and object on the following grounds. An extra entrance near the brow of the hill has been added which is unacceptable on that stretch of road. Referring to the housing need figures and local environment it is clear that the requirement is not for larger houses as the majority of these are – we would like to see more of the three bedroom type -around half and half, on this development. On further information, the Council ask the Planning Department to confirm whether this site is fully within the UDP boundaries. PCC Highway Authority I refer to the revised drawings and I can confirm that the visibility splays of 2.4 by 160 metres can be achieved in either direction which are the required distances within a 50 mph speed limit. The design of the estate adoptable road is acceptable in principle; however some minor amendments may be required for Section 38 purposes. It is noted that there is an existing field access next to the new proposed access this will need to be stopped up in order to eliminate any confusion on the proximity of access points.
