This decision has been made for the following reasons(s) Overall, while there is an argument that the new proposed dwelling does not fully comply with HP14 (as previously considered); it is considered the existing dwelling is of poor form and the new proposed dwelling is of a more traditional character (albeit no Manx vernacular) and would not have a significant adverse impact upon the landscape/countryside setting. It is not uncommon in the immediate are to find similar styled properties or non-vernacular properties in large grounds. Overall, it is considered once again the proposal would have no adverse impact upon public or private amenities and therefore comply with the relevant policies. It is recommended the application is approved subject to conditions listed. Date of Issue: 12th March 2020 Director of Planning and Building Control
