Apache, permission denied when trying to access site

To give a bit of history. I had an internal server setup running centos, apache, php and MySQL. Something went wrong with the server so I installed a new hard drive, installed centos, apache, php and mysql again.

I setup the original drive as a second drive and copied across the contents of my web folder, as well as the following two apache config files;
/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
/etc/httpd/conf.d/vhosts.conf

I've set the permissions of all files and folders in the web root to 755. All files for my web server are stored in /home/webdev/ with the 755 permissions being set on the webdev folder and all sub files and folders.

I've checked the error_log, and this is what I get;

[core:crit] [pid 4333] (13)Permission denied: [client 80.229.235.74:60730] AH00529: /home/webdev/public_html/myfolder/.htaccess pcfg_openfile: unable to check htaccess file, ensure it is readable and that '/home/webdev/public_html/myfolder/' is executable, referer: http://mysubdomain.subdomain.com/

Here's the output of 'ls -al' on the myfolder path;

I don't understand why I'm getting permission denied.
