Mr Peter Brandreth spoke in favour of his planning application, PA26/01587.  He explained:

2. the proposed development would be built “to the latest environmental standard”, and would include a ground source heat pump, solar panels and battery storage;

• the building would have a single storey, which would minimize visual impact;
