The Bradley Stoke Journal

Bradley Stoke Town Council’s Planning Committee has objected to a planning application to extend a house in Ormonds Close.

This application relates to the erection of a two storey side and rear extension and single storey side extension at 55 Ormonds Close.

Committee members voted unanimously to object to the proposal on the following grounds:

• “over-development of the site”
• “not in-keeping with street-scene and surrounding area”

Officials at South Gloucestershire Council have since reviewed the application and recommend that it be approved, saying:

• “not considered to represent an over-development of the site, especially having regard to the characteristics of surrounding development”
• “the development is wholly in keeping with the locality”

The District Council has set a target date of 23rd September for making a decision.

Bradley Stoke’s Baileys Court Inn is seeking to enlarge its premises with a single storey rear extension.

Plans submitted to South Gloucestershire Council show an extension to the lounge bar, which the owners say will be used for “family dining”. A new carvery area will also be added to “encourage food trade”.
