    THE HIGHLAND COUNCIL Agenda Item 5.2 SOUTH PLANNING APPLICATIONS COMMITTEE Report No PLS/011/14 25 February 2014 13/04363/FUL: Mr John Mann Corran Ferry Hotel, Onich, Fort William, PH33 6SE Report by Area Planning Manager – South SUMMARY Description : Erection of restaurant and bar Recommendation - GRANT Ward : 22 - Fort William and Ardnamurchan Development category : Local Development Pre-determination hearing : None required Reason referred to Committee : Timeous objections from members of the public residing at 5 or more separate addresses. 1. PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT 1.1 Planning permission is sought for a replacement for the Corran Inn, which was demolished in late 2013. The proposed development would comprise a bar and restaurant, with the restaurant on ground and first floors, and a self contained one bedroom manager's flat, accessed via an external stair, on the first floor. The proposed footprint would largely coincide with the former building. 1.2 Informal pre-application enquiry 12/04272/PREAPP was submitted: change of use from hotel/B&B accommodation to 4/5 self catering units within existing building, with existing bar retained. Generally supportive response subject to occupancy controls to prevent units being sold off separately. 1.3 The site is just off the A82 approximately 9 miles south of Fort William, adjacent to the queue for the ferry crossing from Nether Lochaber to Ardgour, and next to the Corran Bunkhouse. There is a car park in front of the former Inn, accessed off the road to the ferry. No changes are proposed to the existing access and car park. 1.4 No supporting information submitted.

    CITATION ONICH TO NORTH BALLACHULISH WOODS AND SHORE SITE OF SPECIAL SCIENTIFIC INTEREST Highland (Lochaber) Site code: 10104 NATIONAL GRID REFERENCE: NN 042619 OS 1:50,000 SHEET NO: Landranger Series 41 1:25,000 SHEET NO: Explorer Series 384 AREA: 626.90 hectares NOTIFIED NATURAL FEATURES: Geological: Dalradian Structural and metamorphic geology Biological: Upland habitats Calcium-rich springwater-fed fens Biological: Woodland Upland mixed ash woodland Biological: Woodland Upland oak woodland DESCRIPTION: Onich to North Ballachulish Woods and Shore SSSI is characterised by an extensive area of broad-leaved, semi-natural woodland, unusual mire communities and Dalradian rocks situated at the end of the peninsula formed by the eastward projection of Loch Linnhe, where it joins Loch Leven. The underling geology is complex and is composed of bands of Dalradian slates, schists, limestones and quartzite. The woods are of ecological interest both for their extent and for the variation in structure and flora, which they exhibit as a reflection of the site’s varied topography, aspect and underlying geology. The upland habitats include an unusual mosaic of mires and heaths and support particularly diverse alkaline fens. The SSSI encompasses two localities important for interpreting the structure and development of Dalradian rocks, a series of rocks between 750 and 600 million years old, which lie between the Highland Boundary Fault and the Great Glen Fault and which, for the most part, were derived from marine sediments. The dry gorge of Dubh-ghlac and adjacent rock outcrops exhibit exceptionally well- exposed sedimentary structures within the Dalradian ‘Appin Quartzite’. In particular, these include a variety of different types of ripple marks.
