The owners of a historic coastal mill have lodged plans to demolish a conservatory and change the layout of the building.

The couple, named in planning papers as Mr and Mrs Harris, have applied for permission for the alterations at the Grade II listed Weybourne Mill, on the Sheringham Road near Holt.

A planning statement says: "The existing conservatory located off the west elevation of the building is proposed to be removed, reinstating the appearance of an earlier period.

"The scheme seeks to create more contemporary family living spaces and adjust the current internal layout, in a subtle manner, to address the current owners' ways of living and preferences."

Plans also include a larger kitchen, dining space and snug in a ground floor extension.

Weybourne Windmill was built in the 1850s and ceased milling in 1916, after which it became a private house and passed through various owners. It was previously renovated in the 1920s and extended in the 1980s and 1990s.
