The officer noted that the new stack replaces the existing one in the same position and of similar design, situated at the rear with limited public views.
General Policy 3
General Policy 3 sets a presumption against development in areas not designated on the Area Plan for the South 2013. The officer noted the site is in such an area but found the minor retrospective chimney replacement acceptable as it causes no adverse harm.
Environment Policy 1
Environment Policy 1 reinforces the presumption against development in undesignated areas. Applied alongside housing policies, the officer assessed that the like-for-like replacement at an existing rural dwelling does not conflict with this policy.
Housing Policy 16
Housing Policy 16 applies to development at existing non-traditional rural dwellings. The officer found the proposal accords with HP16 due to its acceptable visual and amenity impacts, with the similar design and rear position ensuring no harm.
