The Seacourt action group are looking for the continued support of the people of Swanage.Please attend the opening of The Public Enquiry on the 24th of May at ten o'clock to be held at the Mowlem at which the developer will appeal the the last two applications for a block of eight flats in the garden of Seacourt, the very special Victorian Villa much admired by the people of Swanage.Purbeck District Council Planning board will be represented by Colin Bright who is a member of that board ,he will defending the right to refuse. Their reasons were 1/Excessive mass and scale 2/Detrimental impact on the residential amenity of neighbours in Taunton Road,3/ Likely increase in highways dandger from additional traffic in Taunton Road and/4 Detrimental effect on the Conservation Area of removing and reducing the height throughout of the existing stone walling to facilitate access to the site.There is no pressure to stay for a long period at the hearing, I have been assured by the Inspectorate's office that the Public are free to leave whenever they wish.We as group would really appreciate a good turnout as we have been battling this for years now. We would like to congratulate and support the Councillors on the Planning Board that have rejected repeated applications for unsuitable development. The application to develop the house is not in dispute and is welcomed,it is the overdevelopment of the garden that is unacceptable.
