Mr & Mrs Worsfold applied to create off-street parking within the side garden of their dwelling at Cliftonville Cottage, involving a new access from Fistard Road, dropped kerb, and lowering roadside walls to 1m for visibility. This followed a previous refusal (PA 06/01858/B) due to inadequate visibility.
