22, Corran Pirragh, Reayrt Ny Cronk, Peel, Isle Of Man, IM5 1gn
Permission was granted for a rear extension at 22 Corran Pirragh, Reayrt Ny Cronk, Peel, Isle of Man. The property is a two-storey mid-terraced house on the north-western side of Corran Pirragh, within a wider residential development on the outskirts of Peel. The main planning considerations were the effect of the extension on the appearance of the property and street scene, and any potential impact on the amenity of neighbouring properties. Both were considered acceptable, and the application was approved under delegated authority with one condition attached.
The Department of Environment, Food and Agriculture approved the application on 26 September 2024. The key planning considerations were the impact on the street scene and the effect on neighbouring amenities, both of which were found to be acceptable.
