Housing Policy 15
Requires extensions to traditionally styled countryside properties to respect proportion, form, and appearance, normally not exceeding 50% of existing floor space. Officer applied flexibly to this newer build mimicking traditional style, finding dormers and height increases acceptable as they retain stacks and general form without adverse impact.
Housing Policy 16
Restricts extensions to non-traditional or poor-form rural dwellings if they increase visual impact. Proposal complies as upward extension maintains proportions, matches porch eaves for uniformity, and does not harm public views despite visibility from road.
Environment Policy 1
Protects countryside from harm. Alterations have acceptable impact due to retention of traditional features, no significant adverse visual effects in landscape or compared to neighbour, and site's established development status.
General Policy 2
Covers siting, layout, scale, design, landscape impact, amenity, highways, energy. Proposal meets sub-clauses (b, c, g, h, i) with no neighbour amenity loss, highway issues, or increased fire/crime risks; uses existing infrastructure.
Community Policy 7
Seeks to reduce fire spread. No issues identified with proposal.
Community Policy 11
Aims to reduce criminal activity. No concerns raised.
