The officer assessed the proposal against Policy RB/5 (Alterations and Extensions to a Registered Building) from Planning Policy Statement 1/01.
RB/5 Alterations and Extensions
Policy RB/5 from Planning Policy Statement 1/01 requires alterations to Registered Buildings to preserve their special architectural or historic interest. The officer tested the proposal's impact on the building's character, noting the works are confined to a non-historic modern rear flat-roof extension added post-1980s, replacing prior modern features (1990 timber staircase). No tension arose as the location minimises visual impact.
