The application is contrary to section 16 of the Town and Country Act 1999 as the building's special architectural and historic interest is not being preserved. The application is also judged to fail the tests of planning policy statement 1/01 as well as strategic policy 4, environment policy 32 and environment policy 34 of the IOM Strategic Plan 2016 as the building is not being protected or preserved, and traditional materials are not being used. The proposals are also contrary to the guidance in Planning Circular 1/98 as neither the material or the method of opening are being replicated. The application is therefore judged to be unacceptable. Date of Issue: 6th September 2022 Director of Planning and Building Control
