Plans submitted to build three-bedroom house in Axbridge close to recreation ground

Plans have been submitted to build a three-bedroom house close to The Furlong recreation ground in Axbridge.

A planning application for the building of a detached single-storey dwelling on land to the north of Portmeade Drove, Axbridge, has been submitted to Sedgemoor District Council by Mrs K Odey and Mr J Chard.

The proposal involves a three-bedroom, two-bathroom residence with lounge, dining room/kitchen and utility room.

The application says the siting of the home has been carefully considered in that it is positioned on the building line of the site, and would therefore not be overly dominant in the landscape.

A new crossing of the watercourse running along the front of the site would be formed with concrete planks on a steel frame, surfaced with Tarmac.

Other planning applications in the Cheddar area that have been submitted this week include:

Erection of two-storey side (east) extension on site of existing extension (to be demolished) and single-storey extension (north) at Bourton Cottage, Bourton Lane, Compton Bishop, has been applied for by Mr G Dalrymple.

Proposed installation of two dormers to the east and west elevations with internal alterations at Waycroft, Templars Way, Shipham, is wanted by Mr and Mrs Taylor.
