Planning committee
Decided by Wealden Minors Planning Committee on 15 Jan 2026.
Refused
Against officer advice: officers had recommended approval.
- Officers advised approval because the benefits of three homes outweighed limited amenity, heritage, parking and ecological impacts.
- A neighbour spoke against the application, while the agent spoke in favour and the ward member’s statement was read aloud.
- Five councillors voted for refusal, four abstained, and the committee refused permission because of Plot 3’s amenity and design impacts.
