planning consent is being sought from Herefordshire Council to create a new fishing lake and extend the caravan park at The Millpond, Little Tarrington.

The application would allow for 20 new caravan static pitches and 12 seasonal pitches, on top of the 30 touring pitches that already exist.

If the council grants permission, the development would also include three holiday chalets. New parking and landscaping areas would also be created.

At present, the site is for touring caravans and camping only.

The owner of The Millpond, Philip Stock, declined to comment further until Herefordshire Council had considered his application. Mr Stock recently hosted a visit by a delegation from Moldovia looking at successful farm diversifications in Herefordshire.
