PLANS to build a swimming pool in the garden of a house in Broadway have been given the go-ahead by planners.

The pool will sit within the formal gardens of the house in Copgrove.

According to planning documents, it will not be visible from the road and will not have an impact on the listed house or any neighbouring listed buildings.

It will be accessed directly from the back door of the house through a terraced section of the garden, so there is no need for a pool house.

The plans have now been approved by Wychavon District Council.
