   Decision issued: Approval with Conditions

4. 20 Aug 2026

   Added to PlanIndex

Permission has been granted, usually subject to conditions listed on the decision notice, some of which must be discharged before work starts. The decision notice on the council portal sets out exactly what was approved.

Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses. Neighbours cannot appeal a grant; challenging one means judicial review of how the decision was made, within tight time limits.

Tree applications cover work to protected trees: those under a tree preservation order need consent for pruning or felling, and trees in a conservation area need six weeks written notice before work starts. The council assesses the amenity value of the tree and can refuse consent, approve it with conditions, or in conservation areas make a preservation order in response.

  Variation of condition 2 on MC/23/1983 to scale down the proposed works from the previously approved extensions, having less of an impact on neighbours & the street scene in comparison to the previously approved design. Omit the approved two storey side extension, retain the existing garage and keep the previous approved single storey flat roof rear extension. Amend the previously proposed openings on the rear elevation of the existing garage from a window to a set of French doors the same width as the existing window.
