A fresh attempt is being made to build sheltered housing on a Bognor Regis site.

McCarthy and Stone wants to create a development of 36 of the apartments on the site of 262 Hawthorn Road.

The size of the scheme has been reduced from 44 apartments in the company's earlier proposal.

This was rejected by Arun District Council last May. A planning inspector backed the council's decision three months later.

The inspector said two elements of the development would extend further forward than the existing derelict house to significantly detract from the area's character and appearance.
