Multiple consultees raised concerns about the proposed Torii gate's impact on the Castletown Conservation Area and registered buildings, with DEFA RB Officer recommending refusal and others objecting or requiring revisions; Highways ultimately raised no objection after revisions.
Key concern: Torii gate incongruous to setting of registered buildings and Castletown Conservation Area character
DEFA RB Officer
ObjectionRecommendation: Refuse; The nature of the gate by virtue of its design, scale and massing is totally incongruous to the setting of these registered buildings and the character and appearance of the conservation area; I consider the proposed torri gate would cause harm to the setting of the adjacent buildings and would fail to preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the conservation area; I therefore recommend the application is either amended to address these concerns or refused
