Plan for two extra homes in busy Eastbourne road refused
An application was submitted to Eastbourne council for one building within the rear garden of 2 Willowfield Road, which is currently used as a house of multiple occupation.
A developer wanted to put a one bedroom unit on each floor.
Refusing the application, a council planning officer said that while the units would be spacious enough for people living there, the three storey existing properties surrounding the proposed redevelopment would overshadow it and block natural light.

A council spokesperson said, “It’s considered the design is incongruous with the properties surrounding and add unnecessary clutter to the site.”
