The application is a revision of previous proposals submitted in September 2021 and then withdrawn after consultations with the local authority’s transportation department.

The revised application includes a new access to the site.

Ribbonfield Farm has been referred to by the planning authority as a disused farm unit since 2009 when the first outline planning permission was granted.

A supporting statement noted: “The proposal is to “complete the site” by creatively designing a landscape and biodiversity framework in which four new dwellings would be positioned courtyard-style connecting through to the adjacent existing residential use, being a previously completed farm steading conversion and new build.”

Councillors will consider the application in due course.
