The owners of an old farmworkers cottage who were refused permission to extend it have appealed after claiming the building is 'no longer fit for purpose'.
Scott and Louise Fraser wanted to extend their three-bedroom cottage at Ballencrieff Mains Farm, near Aberlady, in East Lothian, and create additional accommodation in a detached garage/workshop in its garden.
But East Lothian Council's planners ruled the proposed extension would 'overwhelm' the original cottage, and refused planning permission.
