On Thursday (March 30), Wealden District Council’s Planning Committee North again considered plans to build four homes on garden land adjacent to a property known as Hodges in Eridge Road.
The scheme had previously been considered at a meeting earlier the same month, during which councillors deferred their decision due to concerns about the scale and size of the scheme.

The committee had also raised concerns about the loss of trees from the site. These concerns were addressed through a change in layout, which will see the retention of an additional tree. The developer has also agreed to new planting as part of the scheme.
Officers said these changes would reduce the impact of the development on the host property and surrounding area.
