Housing Policy 13
Requires extensions to rural dwellings formed from remaining fabric to be clearly subordinate (less than 50% of original floor space). The officer applied this to the completed property, noting total extensions at 65%, but assessed the specific sun lounge as subordinate in visibility and design.
Housing Policy 15
Permits extensions to countryside properties only if they respect proportion, form and appearance, exceptionally over 50% floor space. Proposal departs technically on size but officer found it acceptable due to non-visible location, matching materials, and no harm to appearance.
