Planning Inspectorate Appeal Reference – APP/R3325/W/18/3192896

Stoke Trister with Bayford Parish Council held a site meeting on 9 February 2018. Present also was the applicants agent and one member of the public.

We beg to offer the following comments:

GENERAL

1 We regret the permanent loss of agricultural facilities at a time when imported food is becoming expensive.

2 The access to the site is poor.

SPECIFIC

1 Being a group of non-professional Councillors we cannot give a definitive decision on whether the proposal is a conversion or a new build.

2 However, having said that it does seem that if it be a conversion there will be precious little of the original left.

3 In consequence we oppose this application.

Please confirm receipt of this letter.

Kind regards

Patricia Gillman – Clerk to Stoke Trister with Bayford Parish Council
