PLANS have been submitted to repair a house near Salisbury – badly damaged when a car crashed into it.

The crash, on August 25, saw a car hit a property in North Cottages, Bishopstone, at the junction with Portfield Road.

No one was hurt in the incident, but the front of the house was badly damaged.

Now, a planning application has been submitted to Wiltshire Council for the repair of the damage, as well as changing the design.

“The property has recently suffered significant damage to the north, road side elevation, following a collision with a vehicle,” the application said.

It said the plans detailed “reinstatement of that section of the front elevation, deviating from what was there previously but with the intention of taking the opportunity of rebuilding to design something more in-keeping with the overall frontage”.

After the crash, the house was left with a “large opening” in the wall, the plan said, with the impact removing a single door and a window.

The door would not be replaced under the new plans, as it had become redundant, with a “double casement” window put in place in stead of the previous door and window.

The initial crash happened at around 9.35pm on Sunday, August 25, involving a Vauxhall Astra.

Firefighters from Wilton were sent to the scene and found “nobody was injured and the house was confirmed empty”.
