RESOLVED:

That planning application 15/05408/LBC be APPROVED as per the officer recommendation subject to the following:

Justification:

01.       The proposed demolition and alteration to the boundary wall will not result in the loss of significant historic fabric and, as such, the proposals by reason of their limited/informed intervention are considered to respect the historic and architectural interests of the setting of the listed building and will preserve the character and appearance of the conservation area. This is in accordance with policy EQ3 of the South Somerset Local Plan and advice contained within the NPPF.

Subject to the following conditions:

01.       The works hereby granted consent shall be begun before the expiration of three years from the date of this consent.

            Reason: As required by Section 16(1) of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990.

02.       The development hereby permitted shall be carried out in accordance with the following approved plans: Location Plan (1:1250), Block Plan (1:250), Details of Opening (1:100) and Parking Arrangements (1:100) all stamped 15/05408.

            Reason: For the avoidance of doubt and in the interests of proper planning.

03.       No work shall be carried out on site unless details of the materials of the proposed lintel and the making good of the existing structure abutting that to be demolished, have been submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. Such approved details, once carried out shall not be altered without the prior written consent of the Local Planning Authority.

            Reason: in the interests of the special architectural and historic interests of the listed building and in accordance with policy EQ3 of the South Somerset Local Plan 2006-2028.
