Planning Schedule Date: 10/08/2004
Plan, Revised Deposit Version (as amended June 2001 and Housing Policy amendments
September 2003).
It is considered that the proposed dwelling is of a suitable scale and design for this conservation
area location and would not result in the loss of an important open area. Adequate amenity and
parking space is provided for the development.
The site of the proposed dwelling is fairly spacious and in character with the surrounding large
dwellings. The proposal is unlikely to have any significant impact upon the adjoining surrounding
dwellings being some 40m away from the adjacent Old Vicarage. It is therefore considered that
there would be no detrimental affect to neighbouring properties.
It is considered that there would be no detrimental affect upon the setting of the adjoining listed
buildings or the character or appearance of the Conservation Area.
The Highway Authority have raised concerns regarding the suitability of the access serving
Stinchcombe Manor, however, it is not considered that the traffic generated by this additional
dwelling would significantly increase the level of which is already generated by the use as a
nursing home which would justify refusing the application on these grounds. Objectors have
raised issues which include a covenant on the use of the tennis court. This is a civil matter and
not one for your consideration. Other matters they have raised are dealt with in this report.
Permission is therefore recommended.
In compiling this recommendation we have given full consideration to all aspects of the Human
Rights Act 1998 in relation to the applicant and/or the occupiers of any neighbouring or affected
properties. In particular regard has been had to Article 8 of the ECHR (Right to Respect for
private and family life) and the requirement to ensure that any interference with the right in this
Article is both permissible and proportionate. On analysing the issues raised by the application
no particular matters, other than those referred to in this report, warranted any different action to
that recommended.
