Officer's Report

Approval was granted at Appeal for the replacement of two dwellings on the Crosby Top Road, under PA 02/451.

Amendments are now proposed to dwelling No. 1, which is in the eastern half of the site. These include:

• Relocation of the garage and link from the north western elevation to the south eastern elevation. The layout of the driveway would extend closer to the road.
• Relocation of the garage doors to the front elevation instead of the side.
• Conversion of the attic to living accommodation including 2 additional roof lights on the rear roof slope.

Whilst it has not been directly referred to on the drawings the amendments include a slight increase in the eaves height of the main house.

The residents of Ballaclucas Farm have raised concerns about its design but it is essentially the same style and size of dwelling as that previously proposed.

The dwelling would not be any closer the Ballaclucas Farm than the approved dwelling and it is judged that the amendments would not adversely affect the adjacent property.
