A row over plans to build a 'grass-roofed' house next to a listed building are set to see a council policy against new housing being built in the countryside challenged.
East Lothian planners refused to grant planning permission for the four-bedroom home proposed for land next to North Berwick’s Drinking Water Tank, just outside the town in an agricultural field.
Officers said council policy which presumed against new homes unless they were enabling a rural business meant the house could not go ahead.
