Environment Policy 2
ENV2 protects landscape character in Areas of High Landscape or Coastal Value unless development would not harm it or the location is essential. The officer tested the courtyard wall enlargement, finding it a modest addition that replaces an unattractive concrete wall, providing a beneficial visual improvement without harming landscape character.
Housing Policy 16
HP16 generally prohibits extensions to non-traditional or poor-form countryside dwellings that increase their public-viewed impact. The officer assessed the proposal as beneficial to the property's appearance, not increasing impact or detracting from countryside amenities.
