MAD have just received planning approval for a new dwelling in Holmesfield.

The scheme involves the demolition of several dilapidated outbuildings and construction of a new ‘eco’ friendly family dwelling.

The site is within the Holmesfield conservation area with the existing buildings also providing roosting sites for bats. As a result of this a new bat roost will also be constructed to maintain the ecology of the site.

Work is due to start early 2021.
