General Policy 2
Requires development to respect site/surroundings in siting/layout/scale/design, not harm amenity/character/traffic, and meet other tests. Officer found the extension compliant as it matches materials, is subservient in scale, maintains separation to neighbours, improves site amenity without significant garden loss, and has no public visibility or other adverse effects.
Environment Policy 35
Permits only development preserving/enhancing Conservation Area character, protecting special features. Assessed via sympathetic matching materials, integration with existing dark cladding building, and lack of harm to character as extension is private/not visible from public thoroughfares.
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.
