57, Broogh Wyllin, Kirk Michael, Isle Of Man, IM6 1hu
Permission was granted for the erection of a conservatory to the rear elevation of No. 57 Broogh Wyllin, a two-storey detached dwelling on Shore Road in Kirk Michael, Isle of Man. The officer assessed three main planning issues: the effect on the residential amenity of the neighbouring properties at Nos. 56 and 58 Broogh Wyllin, the impact on the amenity of the existing dwelling itself, and the effect on the street scene and public amenity more broadly. The rear of the site is enclosed by hedging and timber fencing of just under 1.8 metres. The application was approved under delegated powers on 24 November 2015, with one condition attached.
The application was permitted by the Department of Environment, Food and Agriculture under delegated powers. The key planning considerations were the impact on neighbouring properties at Nos. 56 and 58 Broogh Wyllin, the amenity of the existing dwelling, and the effect on the street scene. These were assessed as acceptable, leading to approval.
