FARM buildings near Scotch Corner could be given a new lease of life as houses if councillors support a proposed scheme.
The development near the Grade II listed Sedbury Park farmhouse would see removal of modern extensions to traditional barns and their conversion to five homes.
Richmondshire district council environment committee will discuss the scheme on Tuesday, when officers will ask for delegated powers to grant permission subject to amendments to improve the access and window details, and a legal agreement to preclude replacement barns being built
