The site is not within Ramsey Conservation Area - The Isle of Man Strategic Plan (June 2007) - Ramsey Local Plan) (No. 2) Order 1998 #### Planning History The following planning applications are considered relevant in the assessment and determination of this application:- Erection of conservatory - 08/01237/B - APPROVED Alterations and amendments to approved PA05/00859 to erect a dining room extension, car port and creation of window to south elevation - 05/92349/B – APPROVED Demolition of existing utility room and erection of new dining, utility and garage - 05/00859/B – APPROVED Erection of a conservatory over existing lower ground floor terrace - 03/01388/B – APPROVED ### Proposal The application seeks approval for the Erection of a conservatory to west elevation. The proposal would have a depth of 5 metres, a width of 2.8 metres and a ridge height of 2.5 metres. ### Representations Ramsey Commissioners:- No objection The Authority has received no privately written representations objecting to the application. ### Assessment / Recommendation The proposed conservation to the western elevation would be fairly well screen from the adjoining public highway, due to the 1.8 to 2 metre high Manx Stone wall which runs along the western boundary of the site. The existing dwelling is fairly modern in appearance and it is therefore considered a conservatory of this size and design would be in keeping with the property. The proposal would have no adverse impacts upon neighbouring residential amenities, especially upon East Cliff (south of site), given the significant boundary treatment which consists of a 2 metre high grass bank with a 1.8 metre high timber fence and 4 metre high confer hedgerow (approx) on top. For these reasons the proposal would seem appropriate in this location and therefore it is recommended the application for an approval. ### Party Status It is considered that the following meet the criteria of Government Circular 1/06 and should be afforded interested party status: Ramsey Parish Commissioners Highways Division ### Recommendation Recommended Decision: Permitted Date of Recommendation: 07.01.2009 ### Conditions and Notes for Approval / Reasons and Notes for Refusal C : Conditions for approval N : Notes attached to conditions R : Reasons for refusal - : Notes attached to refusals C 1.
