AGENTS NOTE
The planning approval and conditions allows for the foul water and surface water to connect into the main sewer in the filed below (also owned by the vendor). However, the architect advises it maybe more cost efficient for the purchaser to apply for a Sewer Requisition through South West Water, who will allow a connection to be made into the closed connection in the last phase of the Cornwall Rural Housing Site.
