General Policy 2
GP2 requires development to respect visual amenities (b,c) and neighbour amenity (g).

The presumption in favour of extensions in built-up residential areas (para 8.12.1) supported approval.
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.
