Clover Cottage, Main Road, Sulby, Isle Of Man, IM7 2hf
Permission was granted for the erection of a shed within the residential curtilage of Clover Cottage, a detached dwelling on the southern side of Main Road in Sulby, Lezayre. The shed was proposed for the north-eastern corner of the plot, sited approximately 25 metres from the dwellinghouse and in the corner of the front garden. The officer considered the impact on the existing property, adjacent properties, and the wider street scene. The application was approved on 31 March 2010 under delegated authority. The boundary treatment and existing vegetation around the site were noted as providing sufficient screening, and no adverse impact on the residential amenities of neighbouring properties or the visual amenities of the locality was identified.
The application was approved by the Senior Planning Officer under delegated authority. The key planning considerations were the impact on the existing property, neighbouring properties, and the street scene, all of which were found to be acceptable. The formal decision record lists 2 conditions.
