A former councillor who is leading a housing development in Dalbeattie has won a second battle with local residents.
David James, who represented the Castle Douglas and Crocketford ward from 2017-2022, intends on building 12 modern homes on a 3942m² stretch of land north of Barhill Road.
He is submitting planning applications to Dumfries and Galloway Council for permission to build houses in each stage of the development.
