Dear Sir / Madam,
With reference to the above planning application and your letter dated 12th August 2025
requesting further information the following is a detailed response to each of the matters raised
there-in:

implementation of the works in accordance with Policy LCP 1 of the County Development Plan
2025 – 2031.

South-East direction. The revised site layout plan clearly details that the required sightline of
70 metres in the south-east direction from the existing entrance/laneway is already achieved
