Permission was granted for the erection of a rear dormer at 16 Belmont Terrace, Circular Road, Douglas, Isle of Man. The property is a four-storey mid-terrace dwelling situated on the north side of Circular Road, close to its junction with Peel Road, with rear access off Hillside Terrace. The officer considered two main planning issues: the potential impact of the dormer on the character and street scene of the area and the individual property, and any effects on the amenity of neighbouring properties. Both were found to be acceptable. The application was decided under delegated powers and permitted on 7 August 2025.
