| Condition Details / Information Notes |
| The proposed development, by virtue of its form and design, would significantly and harmfully detract from the historic character of the host dwelling and would result in a less then substantial level of harm to its significance as a non-designated heritage asset. The benefits associated with the scene are not considered to outweigh this harm. In addition the removal of stone walling and front porch extension are considered to detract from the street scene and erode the character of the National Landscape. In view of this, it is considered the development would be contrary to policies SWDP 6, SWDP 21, SWDP 23, and SWDP 24 of the South Worcestershire Development Plan and Paragraphs 209 and 210 of the Framework by failing to preserve, and causing harm to, the historic character of a non-designated heritage asset and eroding the quality of the national landscape. |

| In dealing with the application the Council has implemented the requirement in paragraph 38 of the National Planning Policy Framework to work with the applicant in a positive and proactive way. We have made available detailed advice in the form of our statutory policies in the Development Plan, Supplementary Planning Documents, as well as offering a full pre-application advice service in order to ensure that the applicant has been given every opportunity to submit an application which is likely to be considered favourably. Unfortunately, the submitted application is not considered to accord with policy. As a result, the Council has been unable to seek solutions to problems arising from this application as the amendments and additional information required to make the application acceptable are substantial and would be required to be submitted as a new planning application. Despite the Council’s efforts, it is considered that the current planning application should be refused for the reasons set out in the decision notice. The applicant is encouraged to seek pre-application advice prior to the submission of any further formal planning application |
