The application was permitted on 21 July 2011 under delegated authority, in line with the officer's recommendation to approve.
The application was permitted on 21 July 2011 under delegated authority. The officer recommended approval, and the decision aligns with that recommendation. The site's mature trees and hedgerows along all boundaries provide substantial screening from the surrounding road and neighbouring land.

ALTERATIONS AND EXTENSIONS
In considering whether to grant planning approval for development which affects a registered building or its setting
POLICY RB/5 ALTERATIONS AND EXTENSIONS In considering whether to grant planning approval for development which affects a registered building or its setting and in considering whether to grant registered building consent for any works, the Department shall have special regard to the desirability of preserving the building or its setting or any features of special architectural or historic interest which it possesses. Registered building consent is required for the building's alteration in any way which would affect its special architectural or historic character. There will be a general presumption against alteration or extension of registered buildings, except where a convincing case can be made, against the criteria set out in this section, for such proposals. Applicants for registered building consent for alteration or extension to a registered building must be able to justify their proposals. They will be required to show why the works which would affect the character of the registered building are desirable or necessary and they should provide full information to enable the Department to assess the likely impact of their proposals on the special architectural or historic interest of the building and on its setting. Where registered buildings are the subject of successive applications for alteration or extension, consideration will also be given to the cumulative affect upon the building's special interest as a result of several minor works which may individually seem of little consequence.
