The Number 5 bus from Sheringham is running at irregular times as the overgrown hedges from Upper Sheringham means that only single decker buses can use the route. If it is necessary to schedule a double deck bus this route has to be avoided.

6.         Planning
With the approval of the councillors the meeting was addressed by two members of the public regarding proposed planning applications.
    Mr. Fox addressed the meeting with his proposals for improving Eastgate Cottage at the corner of Cross Street and the Coast Road. A planning application is to  be submitted to extend the garage and car parking and landscape the back garden. Flood fencing will be improved at the front with a flood protection wall. Improvements will be in keeping with the character of the village.
 
Mr Hudson gave a presentation of his application (Ref. PF/18/1145) to build a house for his own use on land
at Purdy Street. Two previous applications have been refused.
All the mature trees around the boundary will be retained, scrub trees will be removed. The aim is to create a
garden pavilion.
Accommodation will be on the lower ground floor with a garage, studio, hall and three bedrooms. Living
space will be on the upper floor. This floor has a diagonal  view to aid screening. The garden and courtyard
walls will be flint and Muscle shell render.
The plans also included a community garden and other communal facilities. This proposal was raised,
amongst other topics, during informal discussions with members of the parish council in 2016 but the
developers are open to any other suggestions for the use of this area.
Access will cause a slight narrowing of the street.  Highways need a visibility splay but the wall cannot be
taken down as it is subject to a preservation order.
There were concerns from the floor regarding the height of the upper storey but it was stated that the public
view would be minimal. Most of the lights will be at ground floor level. Thee will be small windows in the
living space so light pollution will be minimal.
There were strong feelings expressed by members of the public that there should not be a community garden
or a walk-through area.                                                                              (Mr. Hudson left the meeting at 9.06pm)
