Key facts
Proposed development
Retention permission is sought for: Conversion of an existing garage to habitable use, construction of a new front boundary wall, various rear extensions to the existing cottage, and a possible increase in roof height — all of which may have been carried out post-1963 and without the benefit of planning permission. Planning permission is sought for: Construction of a new rear extension, conversion of the attic to habitable use, erection of a new shed to the rear for domestic use, and provision of a new vehicular entrance and driveway, together with all associated site development works.
Planning status
Permission was granted on 26 Nov 2025. The four-week appeal period has passed with no appeal recorded, so the permission is final. Works can start once a commencement notice is lodged; the register gives its end as 5 Jan 2031.
