Tel 01624 685950 Marshall Cryer Architects Old School House Cronkbourne Braddan TOWN AND COUNTRY PLANNING ACT 1999 The Town and Country Planning (Development Procedure)(No 2) Order 2013 In pursuance of powers granted under the above Act, and subordinate Orders and Regulations, the Department of Environment, Food and Agriculture determined to REFUSE an application by Mr James & Mrs Linda Cryer, Ref 19/01409/B, for the Conversion and erection of extension of barn to provide ancillary living accommodation at Briarfield Grenaby Road Ballasalla Isle Of Man IM9 3DP for the following reason(s): 1. Not only would what is proposed not comply with HP 11d and sub paragraph a (it would not re-establish the original appearance of the dwelling which is considered desirable in this case as if it were not, then the proposal would fail paragraph c), what is proposed would have a harmful impact on the character of the area due to the unsympathetic alterations to the building which are not in keeping with its current simple form in terms of the new dormers, modern extension with inappropriate doors and canopy and the modern form of glazing in the roadside gable. The proposal therefore also contravenes Environment Policy 1 of the Strategic Plan. 2. The proposal would result in an intensification of substandard existing accesses and would result in a detrimental impact on highway safety, contrary to General Policy 2h and i of the Strategic Plan.
