Applicant: Mr Mark Ashdown, The Coach House/ Judins Cottage, Burwash Road, Burwash Weald Agent: Anthony Sherwin Architect Riba, Treetops At Merlins, Uckfield Road, Ringmer, Nr Lewis SUPPORT REFUSED – The Parish Council feel it is a shame that all four items were put under one planning application. We have outlined our comments for each section: 1) Coach House - The Parish Council does not object to this part of the application 2) Garage - The Parish Council does not object to this part of the application 3) Judins Cottage and 4) Extension of Stables - The Parish Council objects to both of these items. This is an overdevelopment of the site particularly for an exceptionally sensitive AONB. Part 3) of this application also completely overcrowds the neighbouring property. As all items are under one application we therefore object to this application. f) RR/2015/3048/P Broad View, Heathfield Road, Burwash TN19 7HN Proposed loft conversion with hip to gable roof extension and flat roof dormer.
