I checked the TDC website on the 18th May and gave the information available at that time. The old work site application documentation, 16/00762/NPA had just been refused, however on the time and date of your original posting no information on the adjacent appeal site 16/00018/REF (15/01814/FUL) was listed.

Something like the Norway model perhaps, Farty? http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/eu-referendum-norway-viable-model-britain-post-brexit-1547534 According to think tank Open Europe, "if the UK were to opt for a Norwegian-style relationship it would still be bound by great swathes of the EU regulation that rankles with businesses and the general public, but – and this is the crucial point ...
