A decision is due on a year-round artists' retreat on the north Northumberland coast later this week, after councillors decided take a closer look.
The proposals at Alnmouth, which have divided opinion, were first discussed at last month's meeting of the North Northumberland Local Area Council, but after a number of different options were discussed, members voted to defer it so they could go on a site visit and seek clarity on several issues.
The scheme, for a site nestled between the village's two golf clubs, is once again recommended for approval when it goes before the committee on Thursday afternoon.
