General Policy 2
General Policy 2 (b, c, g) requires development to respect local character and distinctiveness, achieve good design, and protect residential amenity from overlooking and privacy loss.

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.
Materials approval
All external facing roofing materials to be used on the extensions hereby approved shall be Rosemary Clay to match those roofing materials of the existing dwelling. Reason: In the interests of the character and appearance of the site and surrounding area.
Obscure glazing
The proposed side gable first floor window hereby approved shall be installed with obscure glass to Pilkington Level 5 or equivalent and permanently retained as such thereafter. Reason: To safeguard the amenities of adjoining occupiers from overlooking and loss of privacy.
