Drivers using a beach car park will soon be charged again.

Hunstanton Golf Club has been given planning permission to install an automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) camera in the car park it owns on Beach Road, at Holme.

In a planning statement, it said: "The proposed installation of ticketing equipment would allow charges to be levied all year round on a more cost-effective basis."

Parking was previously controlled by a kiosk. But drivers who arrived when it was not open could park for free and the concession closed in the summer.

A planning officer's report, which recommended approval, said: "The application seeks permission for an ANPR camera by the car park entrance alongside a ticket machine within the site.

"Based on the existing use of the land, the surrounding area and the level of natural screening it is not considered that these small scale additions will have a significant visual impact or adversely affect the locality."
