Councillors have unanimously backed plans by singer-songwriter Charlotte Church to turn the former home of Laura Ashley in the Elan Valley into a wellness retreat.
Powys Council's planning committee voted to grant permission for the"Voice of an Angel" star’s proposal to change the use of Rhydoldog House near Rhayader from a residential dwelling to a wellbeing and healing retreat on Thursday.
She said road widening and building of passing bays were part of the proposal and due to this the Highways Authority believed that an objection could not be sustained. Councillor Huw Williams said: “We must ask some questions on behalf of the town council who do have concerns about the highways." “Because the numbers of vehicle movements are not increasing significantly – we don’t feel we could sustain an argument at appeal that they need to improve the visibility at the junction.”“In terms of the passing places, they have detailed and justified the opportunities along that road. We’d always like more, but we probably could not defend that at appeal.
