General Policy 3
Prohibits development outside zoned areas except on previously developed land where it reduces landscape impact and improves the environment. The officer considered the site as established residential curtilage (previously developed with dwelling, garage, stable block) per prior approval, and the small-scale summerhouse improves/accords without harm.
Environment Policy 1
Protects countryside (land outside settlements or development zones) unless overriding national need outweighs protection. Site is countryside; officer found no adverse countryside impact due to secluded position, no tree/open field harm, and no ecological concerns, so no overriding need required.
Environment Policy 2
Protects Areas of High Landscape or Coastal Value (AHLV) character unless development causes no harm or location essential. Site in AHLV; officer assessed that the proposal causes no harm to landscape character due to screening, sympathetic design, and rear location behind stable block.
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 26 of the Town and Country Planning (Development Procedure) Order 2019 and to avoid the accumulation of unimplemented planning approvals.
