The proposal involves demolishing the existing lean-to conservatory on the side of a detached single storey dwelling and replacing it with a larger pitched roof extension measuring 2m projection, 7.8m length, 2.1m eaves height, and 4.5m ridge height, finished to match the main house.

The key issue was the impact of the proposed extension on the character and appearance of the area and the living conditions of the adjacent property at No.
General Policy 2
GP2 permits development in residential areas that respects the site and surroundings in terms of siting, layout, scale, form, design, does not adversely affect landscape/townscape character, and does not harm resident amenity or locality character. The officer tested the extension's scale, height, and positioning against neighbouring No. 40, finding it acceptable due to no overlooking, matching roof form, and screening from vegetation. No tensions noted as the proposal complied fully.
Time limit
The development hereby approved shall be begun before the expiration of four years from the date of this decision notice. Reason: To comply with article 14 of the Town and Country Planning (Development Procedure) (No2) Order 2013 and to avoid the accumulation of unimplemented planning approvals.
