An outbuilding in Whittington can be converted into a new home after plans were approved.

The development at Ivy Cottage on Main Street will see the creation of a three bedroom property.

A planning statement said the scheme would include a workshop, former stable, barn and cart shed.

> “The existing driveway will be utilised to provide access to the converted, self-contained residential dwelling, that is currently sited within the curtilage of Ivy House.  
>  
> “The conversion of the outbuilding will conserve and enhance the current aesthetic, character and material palette of current house and the wider conservation area of which the building is sited.  
>  
> “It will retain the characteristic features of the current building and enhance then.”
