This decision has been made for the following reasons(s) The physical works to the existing dwelling are considered to have an acceptable visual impact - on the existing dwelling and on the surrounding local area. There are no new or adverse impacts expected on highways or flood risk. Amenity on neighbours has been considered in more detail particularly the first floor roof terrace, and on balance given the existing situation of the terrace, that the proposal now is not considered to make materially worse the impact of the living conditions and amenity of No. 19. For these reasons the application is considered to accord with General Policy 2 and Environment Policy 42, and not to undermine any future potential for conservation area status given the acceptability of the works and preservation of key features (frontage, form, heights, remaining chimney stacks) which contribute to the overall traditional character of the area Date of Issue: 13th November 2025 A MORGAN Interim Director of Planning and Building Control Guidance Note This decision was made by a Principal Planner in accordance with the authority delegated to them.
