The application also includes ground mounted solar panels, the creation of a phosphate credit bank and ancillary work on land at Newburn Farm, Kington.

Messers Gwatkin of Bush Farm, Presteigne said the site is currently occupied by a range of steel framed agricultural buildings which have Class Q permission to be converted into houses. Another building has Class Q permission to be converted into two dwellings.

Three of the houses would have three bedrooms and two would be four-bedroomed, and 12 car parking spaces would be provided.
