Planning appeal 3339010 at Shornden Works, Clarence Road, St Leonards-on-Sea, East Sussex, TN37 6SH (Hastings Borough Council) was dismissed on 10 December 2024 by Inspector Hobbs J, by written representations. The main issue, as the Inspector framed it: Whether the evidence and particulars required by the Council are reasonable having regard to the nature and scale of the proposed development and whether they are matters which it would be reasonable to conclude would be material considerations in the determination of the application.

The proposal is for placement on the site of 4 number 1 bedroomed/2 storey houses of sustainable construction together with associated car parking and attendant refuse/recycling and bicycle storage. There will also be some landscaping and, subject to approval, an on-site sewage treatment plant
