Plans for a housing development in Newhaven have been approved by Lewes councillors.
The Lewes District Council’s planning committee approved an application to build 23 homes, comprising 17 three-bedroom houses and six one-bedroom flats, on brownfield land to the west of Transit Road.
The scheme would result in an ‘overdevelopment’ of the site.
Despite concerns, the majority of the committee considered the scheme to be an acceptable development and opted to approve the application.
