The creation of the two additional doorways in place of bay windows would neither preserve or enhance the character of Ballaquayle Road Conservation Area, the street scene of Hutchinson Square or 18 Hutchinson Square itself. This aspect of the proposal would not comply with General Policy 2 or Environment Policy 35 of the Isle of Man Strategic Plan 2016. 2. The proposed replacement of the railings on the front steps of the property is unacceptable for the following reasons: (a) There is a lack of information specifying the type and style of the railings to be installed. (b) it does not appear that the replacement railings would match the traidional cast iron pattern and style of the existing and would therefore be detrimental to the character and appearance of the area and the site. The railing replacements would not comply with Environment Policy 35. Date of Issue: 18th January 2019 Director of Planning and Building Control
