Ward Councillor Cllr Layland said at the meeting that he had spoken to the Planning Officer who had informed him that the applicant had provided information and documents which answered all the above comments to the Planning Officer's satisfaction. 

It was also noted at the meeting that the application should not have been validated as the application form is unclear in section ‘Listed Buildings Alteration’. Both ‘c’ and ‘d’ answered No, yet believe should be ‘Yes’ as works is taking place to the internals of the building.
