Sports Field, Old Church Road, Crosby, Isle Of Man, IM4 2ha
The application concerns the south eastern corner of Marown Memorial Playing Fields off Old Church Road, Crosby, which includes a bowling green, football pitch, BMX track and skate park. The proposal is for creation of a two-lane cricket practice net. The officer recommended approval on 26 January 2010. The final decision was to permit the development as it aligned with the site's land designation, improved facilities for users, was not overly dominant in scale, and could be easily removed when not needed.
The application was permitted. It complied with the site's land designation and improved existing facilities without appearing overly dominant, as it could be easily removed when not required.
