Housing Policy 15
HP15 states that extensions or alterations to existing traditionally styled properties in the countryside will normally only be approved where they respect the proportion, form and appearance of the existing property, and only exceptionally where they exceed 50% of existing floor space. The officer assessed the lean-to extension, roof lights, and chimney removal as minor alterations that respect the original dwelling's character without exceeding the floor space limit. The changes were deemed acceptable in this sensitive landscape area.
