GETTING BACK TO NATURE

Pupils of St Mary's Roman Catholic Primary School, will find their nature study sessions a bit more comfortable if a planning application gets approved.
The Grammar School Road centre of learning is seeking permission to erect a log cabin near the nature area at the back of the facility, from where pupils will be able to observe the trees, flowers and presumably wildlife.
From the cabin this will can be done 'undercover' rather than having to brave the unpredictable English weather.
The structure will be fashioned from pre-treated spruce boards with a shallow pitch roof covered in 'mineral felt shingles'.
The school says it will be of a rustic, traditional appearance and in keeping with the surrounding nature area.
An application for the necessary consent has now been submitted to North Lincolnshire Council (the planning authority) by a Hewson House-based agent for North Lincolnshire Council (the education authority).
First stage in the process will be consideration by Brigg Town Council, whose comments (if any) may be taken into account by planners before they rule on the application.
