and live on Freeview channel 276
Planning permission is being sought from Horsham District Council to change the use of the property – next to a barber’s at 75A Crawley Road, Roffey – from commercial to residential.
The building is currently used as a consulting room for a health practice. Specialist building company Churchlands Homes want to build a ground floor and first floor extension to form a two-bedroom house on the site.

It adds: “We believe that the building is sympathetic and will release a much sought after, small dwelling.”
The company maintains that there is a ‘substantial demand’ in the area for small properties of the type proposed.
