The officer assessed three key issues: the proposed ancillary use, design of the extension, and impact on neighbouring living conditions.
General Policy 2
Requires development to respect scale, character, local distinctiveness, and neighbouring amenity. Officer tested the extension's subordinate design, complementary features (gable), traditional materials (Manx slate, render), and neighbour impact, finding it meets part (b) on design and not in conflict overall.
Environment Policy 35
Relevant in proposed Conservation Area; requires protection of historic fabric and character. Extension position retains historic fabric better than alternatives, with compatible design and materials not conflicting with parts (b), (c), (g).
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.
Ancillary use only
The outbuilding the subject of this application shall not be occupied at any time other than ancillary to the residential use of the dwelling known as Walton House, Bridge Road, Ballasalla as identified on the approved plans and shall not be occupied as an independent dwelling unit. Reason: To protect the existing residential amenity and enjoyment of Walton House and to prevent use of the building as a permanent, independent dwellinghouse.
