THE APPLICATION SITE
1.1 The application site is within the curtilage of No.7 Stanley Road, Peel, which is a mid terrace, three storey property situated to the South West of Stanley Road.
1.2 The property currently has sliding sash windows and a two over two solid wooden door.
THE PROPOSAL
2.1 The current planning application seeks approval for the replacement of the existing front door with a two over two composite door, with glazing to the upper half. The aperture shape is not being altered.
PLANNING HISTORY
3.1 The previous applications are not relevant in the assessment of this application.
PLANNING POLICY
4.1 The site lies within an area zoned as "Mixed Use" under the Peel Local Plan 1989. The site isn't within a Flood Risk Zone but is within a Conservation Area.
4.2 Given the nature of the of the land designation and the property being within a Conservation Area, Section 18(4) of the Town and Country Planning Act (1999) is the most relevant in the assessment of this application. Followed by paragraph 7.29.2 and Environment Policy 35 of the Isle of Man Strategic Plan, which set out development in Conservation Areas will only be permitted where they preserve or enhance the character and appearance of the area.
REPRESENTATIONS
5.1 The following representations can be found in full online;
5.2 Highway Services have considered the proposal and state "No Highways Interest." (14.06.24)
5.3 No comments have been received from Peel Commissioners at the time of writing this report.
ASSESSMENT
6.1 The main issues to consider in the assessment of this planning application are:
6.2 SECTION 18(4) TEST - CHARACTER
6.2.1 Due to the proposed works being in a Conservation Area it is necessary to test the application under section 18(4) of the Town and Country Act (1999), see section 4.2 of this report, on whether the works preserve or enhance the Conservation Area.
6.2.2 When looking down Stanley Road, there is a wide variety of doors currently in situ, as such the proposal of an almost like for like door would not impact the Conservation Area.

6.3 SECTION 18(4) TEST - APPEARANCE
6.3.1 When looking at the character and appearance of the proposed works on the surrounding area, the main impact would be making sure that the works preserve or enhance the Conservation Area. The proposal is for a change of the material of the door and the installation of glazing to the upper half of the door, both of these alterations are deemed acceptable and are unlikely to impact the appearance of the Conservation Area.
CONCLUSION
7.1 The proposed new front door is deemed acceptable in terms of their form, mass and design which will ultimately preserve the overall Conservation Area and Streetscene, as such the proposal complies with Section 18(4) of the Town and Country Act (1999) and Environment Policy 35 of the Isle of Man Strategic Plan 2016.
