P/037/15 PLANNING APPLICATIONS (5)

1.  30/0771/15/F Householder application for new ancillary unit of accommodation for Mr. A Brownsword at Kittery Court, Priory Street, Kingswear. TQ6 0AB.          OBJECTION (unanimous)

Comment:

The development is within the Conservation Area. The Conservation Plan refers to Kittery Court as having some of the few surviving examples of 16th Century building. The Conservation Area also protects large gardens with trees. The building is not felt to be appropriate for this area and is over development of the site. Historically there was no building in this site. The stand alone dwelling is not supported.

There is also concern over access and parking and the increase in size to 3 bedrooms from the  previously refused application. The parish council has referred back to the planning officer's comments regarding the 2013 application which was refused. (Mr R Boyt).

The privacy of neighbours would also be affected.
