Environment Policy 1
Presumes against development harmful to the landscape. The officer found the minor, non-visible extension in context with existing facilities caused no harm, overcoming the presumption.
Environment Policy 2
Promotes landscape protection as the most important consideration unless siting is essential with no harm. Assessed against High Landscape Value designation; scale and location ensured no harm to Broad Lowland Valley character or key views.
Environment Policy 3
Protects trees. Registered Trees are present but not close to the development, so no harm.
General Policy 2
Protects existing landscape features. No harm to trees or landscaping from the proposal.
General Policy 3
Sets exceptions to presumption against countryside development; tourism facilities not listed, hence non-compliant, but outweighed by other material considerations like minor scale and tourism support.
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.
