The proposed development will replace the Old Parish Meeting Hall with a new dwelling and an extension will be built to the north where a concrete shed is located. A sewer on the site connects to the main sewage line; therefore, no new percolation area will be constructed.

The development site is located within the vicinity of Recorded Monuments WX048-014001 (Church) and WX048-014002 (Graveyard). The eastern boundary of the site lies just within the constraint zone of the recorded monument site.

The archaeological excavation involved the excavation of a single test trench 14m in length within the footprint of the planned extension. No finds or features of archaeological significance were found in the test trench.
