Policy D1: Design of New Development
- The existing build form in terms of enclosure and definition of streets and spaces, including degree of set back; The houses on the green have a well proportioned space between neighbouring properties and of a destinctive character, the plans for this development encroach on the boundary line to the front and side elevations and would not be in keeping with the the housing stock on the green.
- Be of an appropriate height, scale and density to complement its setting; The property is in an elevated position to the neighbouring small bungalow, the height and size of the proposed development would be too dominent and out of proportion.
- Create a place with a locally inspired and distinctive character, based on analysis of the site and context; The properties on the green have a destinctive character, they are well proportioned within their settings and in relation to the neighbouring properties. Further development to this property on the proposed front and side elevations would be out of keeping and would alter th e character of the properties on the green.
The Parish Council have no objection to a smaller rear extention to the property which does not affect the street scene or neighbouring property.
