Officer's Report

The site lies on the south eastern side of the Balnahowe Road which links Port Erin with Cregneash and represents part of the curtilage of Shenvalley Farm whose buildings lie to the north west of this site. Planning permission has recently been refused for the erection of a garage/storage shed to the rear of existing buildings (PAs 05/1730 and 05/0084).

Planning permission was granted for the conversion of this agricultural building to a dwelling under PA 04/0394 having previously been a dwelling and converted to an agricultural building under 97/1374 through the removal of the internal walls. The conversion to the dwelling involved the raising of the roofline and the rebuilding to a larger footprint of the side annex.

Now proposed is a modest rear extension in a traditional and attractive form. The external finish is to be render to match the house. There will be no alterations to the access as noted by PSM Commissioners.

The concerns of the IOMWA have now been addressed.
