A house builder has won an appeal on its plans to develop a site in Bathgate which councillors had rejected for “cramming” homes onto open countryside
The council rejected plans in January by Taylor Wimpey to build almost 200 homes on a field at Sibbald’s Brae on the western edge of the town, branding the development plan as cramming.
Labour councillor Harry Cartmill slated the decision saying: “The Reporter has powers that belong in North Korea not 2022 Scotland.”
