Planning Permission - A pre application has been submitted by the owners, the response is positive and the feedback is that the generously sized plot is visually well contained. It is also noticeably larger than the neighbouring plots. A new dwelling could be accommodated in a way that broadly reflects the established building to plot ratio of adjacent properties. Subject to further assessment of any design proposals, the substantial size of the plot and the presence of mature boundary landscaping indicate that a dwelling could be introduced without causing undue impact on neighbour amenity.
