Housing Policy 15
Requires extensions to traditionally styled countryside properties to respect proportion, form and appearance, with only exceptional approval over 50% floorspace increase. Officer found modest scale aligns rear kitchen without exceeding limits, subordinate additions respect existing character per para 8.12.2 guidance on controlling size/form to avoid detracting from countryside amenities.
Environment Policy 1
Protects countryside outside settlements unless overriding national need and no alternative. Proposal complies as screened development causes no adverse countryside effects.
Environment Policy 2
Prioritises landscape character protection in Areas of High Landscape Value unless no harm or essential location. Minor changes not publicly visible due to trees, no harm to character/quality.
General Policy 2
Permits development respecting site/surroundings in siting, scale, form, design, landscaping, amenity, access, services etc. Proposal satisfies as it incorporates topography/trees, provides amenity, no adverse impacts.
General Policy 3
Presumption against development in High Landscape Value areas. Overcome by policy-compliant residential extension on established site.
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 26 of the Town and Country Planning (Development Procedure) Order 2019 and to avoid the accumulation of unimplemented planning approvals.
