Environment Policy 1
Requires protection of countryside (land outside settlements or not designated for development) unless overriding national need outweighs protection and no alternative exists. The officer assessed the extension would not adversely affect the countryside, given private location and landscaping, so complies.
Environment Policy 2
Protects character of Areas of High Landscape or Coastal Value unless development does not harm landscape quality or location is essential. Officer found proposal would not harm character due to lack of public visibility and landscaping.
Housing Policy 16
Extensions to non-traditional dwellings not permitted if increasing public visual impact. Officer determined no significant increase in impact as not viewed publicly from private lane 480m from A3.
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.
