·  DC/12/1596

Erection of 1 x 4-bed detached dwelling with integral garage

Land North West of Beechwood Crawley Road Faygate West Sussex

Colgate Parish objected to this application on the following grounds:

1.  It is in an area of outstanding natural beauty

2.  The Parish believe this is not a brownfield site and would like confirmation of this

3.  Concerns about the access onto a layby by the very busy A264 were raised.

The Councillors wondered why the application is set out on Crawley Borough Council form?
