Howden Farm Gifford Haddington EH41 4JS
The proposed solar array is proposed within an agricultural field at Howden farm approximately 5km south from Haddington. The site is accessed via the b6355, utilizing the purpose-built junction for the Scott eggs hen sheds and turbine maintenance. Within the farm, existing informal field accesses will facilitate entry to the proposed solar array site. The development is surrounded by existing agricultural infrastructure including large hen sheds and a wind turbine. See appendix 2.1 and 2.2 for further geographical reference.

26/00001/SCR Decided
Brunton Hall Ladywell Way Musselburgh East Lothian EH21 6AF
Screening Opinion - Replacement of the Brunton Hall including up to the full demolition of the existing building and rebuilding to provide facilities for the arts and potential commercial redevelopment of the remaining land. The existing building has the presence of Reinforced Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (RAAC) in the roof structure and remediation options are deemed financially unviable, prompting a reassessment of the building's future. The redevelopment of the Brunton site offers the opportunity to create a landmark cultural destination within one of Scotland's fastest growing regions. A new facility has the potential to complement Edinburgh and East Lothian's leisure and tourism assets, while serving a growing local population and aims to secure a sustainable future for cultural provision in the town. The site lies within a town centre environmental and as such is not considered to have any special or significant habitat other than that which is common within an urban environmental (hard pavement and roads). Although the Brunton Hall site is not within the Musselburgh Conservation Area, the boundary of the Conservation Area is adjacent to the site. It is therefore important that any development of the site should have sensitivity to its placing and relevant discussions and consultations with the local authority planning department will take place.
