Proposal

A single bedroom dwelling to be constructed on the brownfield site. There is an existing approval C10/0261 for a boat workshop, sun room and shower room, the foundations for which have already been built. The proposed single bedroom dwelling will be built directly on the existing foundations and conform to the outline of the existing approval. The single bedroom will be provided by constructing a new first floor above the workshop to be reached by stairs from the sun room. The remainder of the first floor will comprise a large store room. Daylight to the bedroom will be provided by high level windows in the south slope of the room and french windows with an escape balcony in the gable wall facing west.
