The officer identified the key issue as whether the proposed alterations to the non-traditional dwelling would increase its impact as viewed from the public highway, per Housing Policy 16.
Environment Policy 1
Requires protection of countryside outside settlements unless overriding national need. Officer assessed that minor internal alterations do not adversely affect countryside ecology or character.
Environment Policy 2
Prioritises protection of AHLV landscapes unless no harm to character or location essential. Proposal found acceptable as small-scale works within existing fabric do not harm landscape quality.
Housing Policy 16
Generally restricts extensions to non-traditional dwellings if increasing public view impact. Alterations deemed not to significantly increase impact due to minimal external changes.
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.
