PLANNING approval has been given for changes to two buildings at the Silverlake holiday home complex (Wakeleing Island) in a former quarry at Crossways.

Both relate to the appearance, landscaping, layout and other details of the two plots, compared to the original 'in principal' site consent given more than ten years ago.

Other planning proposals decided for the Dorchester area this week include what town councillors described as "substantial" changes to a home in Garfield Avenue and a temporary campsite plan at Milborne St Andrew Sports Club.
