Environment Policy 35
Requires development in Conservation Areas to preserve or enhance character and appearance. Officer assessed windows enhance due to reverting to original sliding sash style; door preserves character; rear works not publicly visible but compliant. Proposal found to meet policy fully.
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.
Window horns detail
The windows on the front elevation that are to be sliding sash, are to be fitted with horns which must be run through and not stuck on. Reason: to ensure that the new windows are appropriate in appearance and form to the Conservation Area in which they will sit.
no highways interest
Highway Services Division has no interest and does not oppose the application. Isle of Man Victorian Society initially objected to the front door and windows but later supported the revised sliding sash windows subject to a condition for horns, while continuing to object to the door.
Key concern: proposed door replacement is totally inappropriate for the Conservation Area and contrary to Section 18(4) of the Town and Country Planning Act 1999
