A PLAN has been submitted to Thurrock Council to demolish an existing bungalow and build two two-story homes in its place.
The application has been put in for the development on the site of the bungalow known as Cosy on Church Road in Bulphan.
A PLAN has been submitted to Thurrock Council by the Intergen power company, which runs a small generating station at Coryton, to create a battery electricity storage site on adjacent land.
Intergen has previously wanted to use the site to create another generating operation but would now like to use the area for a storage station.
The proposed project includes an array of ground-mounted solar panels and it is projected it would run for 40 years.

As ever at the Towngate, the show's star is ever-popular Simon Fielding who not only takes centre stage but he produces, directs and arranges the music for the sumptuous show.
