Plans to demolish a house near a picturesque beach and build a replacement look set to get the green light despite objections.
A developer named as Mr Dighton has applied to knock down Cedar Lodge, a two-storey 20th century house on Hamilton Road West, at Old Hunstanton.
A planning officer's report says: "The site consists of a prominent corner plot within Old Hunstanton at the junction of Hamilton Road West and Sea Lane."

It adds the new house would have a two-storey wing adjacent to Sea Lane connecting to a single storey garage, a central flat roof two storey element with a further two storey wing adjacent to the eastern boundary.
Old Hunstanton Parish Council has objected due to "over development of the site, being out of character with the surrounding conservation area and objections made by neighbours".
But the planning report says the new property "would acceptably relate to its setting" and recommends councillors approve it when they meet on Monday, September 2.
