COUNCILLORS will visit a 365-year-old Pendleside barn before deciding whether it can be turned into a home.

Pendle Council's Barrowford and western parishes area committee deferred a decision on a planning application to convert the barn at Bull Hole Farm, Well Head Road, Newchurch-in-Pendle.

In March, councillors turned down a request to convert the barn into two houses because it went against planning policies to protect the countryside.
