Plans to create three homes at site in Cheddar are withdrawn

Plans for the expansion of a Cheddar property and its garage to create three homes, have been withdrawn.

A planning application for the extension to, and subdivision of, the existing dwelling to form two dwellings, and the conversion of, and extension to, the existing garage with ancillary accommodation above to form one dwelling at Ceconda, The Barrows, Cheddar, had been submitted to Sedgemoor District Council by Mr Sugg.

The site currently contains a four-bedroom house, garage and flat over, and this application was proposing the creation of two two-bedroom semi-detached houses and one three-bedroom house.

Cheddar Parish Council objected to the plans, saying it was an over-development of the plot and the bedrooms did not meet the legal requirement of rooms sizes, and the application has now been withdrawn.

One planning application in the Cheddar area has been submitted this week:

Application for approval of details reserved by conditions 5 (Ecology - Licence), 6 (Ecology - Nest Boxes), 7 (Ecology - Bats ), 8 (External Lighting) on planning consent 2019/1627/HSE at Brockhill Cottage, School Lane, Draycott, has been made by Tim and Sarah Richens.

Planning applications in the Cheddar area that have been decided this week include:

Erection of first-floor extension to the rear (south west) elevation, erection of a detached garage, existing garage to be demolished, closing up of existing access and formation of new access and driveway at Turnpike Cottage, Badgworth, has been approved.
