Roy Cottage And Caaghyr, Bradda East, Port Erin.
The proposal was to build a replacement dwelling on a plot between two existing properties, Roy Cottage and Caaghyr, at Bradda East in Port Erin. The site contained a derelict cottage, and the application sought to replace it with a new dwelling. The case was reviewed by the Planning Committee on the basis of written evidence rather than a hearing. Permission was granted, subject to four conditions.
The Planning Committee approved the application on written evidence. The replacement of a derelict cottage with a new dwelling on the same plot was considered acceptable, resulting in a permit being granted subject to four conditions. Detailed reasoning is not available from the source material.
Condition 1
The building must be used only for domestic purposes.
Condition 2
The development hereby permitted shall be commenced before the expiration of four years from the date of this notice.
Condition 3
No approval is granted to the use of stained timber windows as proposed; prior to the commencement of works, details of windows with slimline aluminium frames must be submitted to and approved by the Planning Office. The window frames (and preferably the eaves, fascia, and garage doors) should be of a dark colour (preferably black) in order to be in keeping with the Arts and Crafts elements of the design.
Condition 4
All services including electricity and telephone where installed must be laid underground.
