An appeal into an application for 14 homes on the site of a Victorian corn mill will be heard in South Ayrshire this week.
An appeal against the refusal of a Monkton housing development will be heard by councillors this week.
Refusing the application last November, planners said that the site was outside the Monkton settlement area and the applicant did not provide evidence that the benefit to the community or economy or need for homes outweighed this. They reiterated the argument around the historic use for corn mills, stating: “The current site is a brownfield site with existing structures both partially exposed and larger areas of structure concealed by heavy overgrowth, the development is therefore rehabilitating a brownfield former working site.”
They added: “The proximity of the development to such development and sources of employment would encourage shorter commutes, greener transport initiative and better work life balance for prospective homeowners/workers.”
