Planning Schedule Date: 10/08/2004 Revised plans have been submitted which have changed the siting, design and materials of the proposed extension. The size of the site makes it difficult to make major changes in terms of siting but the revised proposals have made a larger space between listed building and extension. The building has been set back from the road frontage making it less challenging to the front elevation of the listed building. The interior alterations now retain the large single space and the folding screen, thus preserving more of the character of the interior of the building. The proposed changes will permanently alter the setting of the listed building and the tight site means almost inevitably that the extensions are nearer to the listed building than might be desirable in a perfect world. However, offset against this is the considerable gain in the loss of the ugly temporary buildings. The changes in the design and materials of the extension mean that the difference between listed building and extension is emphasised and the reduction in height and changes in plan form and siting all combine to make this a more acceptable proposal in terms of the character and setting of the listed building. This is a County Council application and the Secretary of State ultimately makes the decision. You are therefore recommended to refer this application to the Secretary of State with no observations. 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.

Date Received: Planning Schedule Date: 10/08/2004 17.06.2004 Recommendation Refusal Consultations/Representations: Parish / Town Support: In keeping with the property. Neighbour Contributions For the following reasons: 1. The proposed works are contrary to the guidance laid out in Paragraphs 3.3, 3.12, 3.13, C.5, C.7, C.37, C.47 and C.49 of PPG 15, 'Planning and the Historic Environment'. The removal and subsequent treatment of the fireplace has caused harm to the historic fabric of the house and to the character and appearance of the Listed building. 2. Whilst the principle of a conservatory may be acceptable, the existing building is inappropriate in terms of methods of construction, materials and design. PPG 15 is clear that the use of UPVC is nearly always unsuitable in historic buildings. The present conservatory detracts from, and causes harm to, the character and appearance of the historic building. 203

<strong>Planning</strong> <strong>Schedule</strong> <strong>Date</strong>: <strong>10</strong>/<strong>08</strong>/<strong>2004</strong><br />

Revised plans have been submitted which have changed the siting, design and materials of the<br />

proposed extension. The size of the site makes it difficult to make major changes in terms of<br />

siting but the revised proposals have made a larger space between listed building and extension.<br />

The building has been set back from the road frontage making it less challenging to the front<br />

elevation of the listed building.<br />

The interior alterations now retain the large single space and the folding screen, thus preserving<br />

more of the character of the interior of the building.<br />

The proposed changes will permanently alter the setting of the listed building and the tight site<br />

means almost inevitably that the extensions are nearer to the listed building than might be<br />

desirable in a perfect world. However, offset against this is the considerable gain in the loss of<br />

the ugly temporary buildings. The changes in the design and materials of the extension mean<br />

that the difference between listed building and extension is emphasised and the reduction in<br />

height and changes in plan form and siting all combine to make this a more acceptable proposal<br />

in terms of the character and setting of the listed building. This is a County <strong>Council</strong> application<br />

and the Secretary of State ultimately makes the decision. You are therefore recommended to<br />

refer this application to the Secretary of State with no observations.<br />

In compiling this recommendation we have given full consideration to all aspects of the Human<br />

Rights Act 1998 in relation to the applicant and/or the occupiers of any neighbouring or affected<br />

properties. In particular regard has been had to Article 8 of the ECHR (Right to Respect for<br />

private and family life) and the requirement to ensure that any interference with the right in this<br />

Article is both permissible and proportionate. On analysing the issues raised by the application<br />

no particular matters, other than those referred to in this report, warranted any different action to<br />
