BRIGG BBQ & BAR SEEKING APPROVAL


A Brigg barbecue and bar is seeking approval. The town sees many planning applications seeking consent to build new homes or add extensions, but this one - recently lodged for a domestic property's garden - is only the second of this type we can recall in recent years.
Retrospective planning permission for the BBQ/bar structure is being requested for 21 Bramble Way, on the edge of the Newlands estate.
The timber structure in the rear garden is said by the applicant to be "15 cm above the permitted 2.5 metre maximum" - hence the need for a formal planning application.
It was considered by Brigg Town Council's Planning & Environment Committee at a meeting held on September 22.
Brigg Town Council says it neither supports nor objects to this application but does have concerns that the structure may restrict light to the neighbouring property.
The unitary authority will now decide whether to approve the application.
Brigg Blog reported the granting of planning permission to replace an existing garden shed with a shed and covered barbecue area at a property on Westrum Lane in 2017.
