General Policy 2
General Policy 2 requires development to respect and enhance the character and appearance of conservation areas. The officer assessed the door replacement against this, finding it acceptable as the area's character derives from red brick and crenellated features, not doors, and the proposal retains the 'durability' appearance.
Environment Policy 35
Environment Policy 35 protects conservation areas. The assessment noted the proposal's style is not inappropriate given streetscene precedents and non-original existing door, with no adverse impact on character.
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.
