Ballure Cottage Rear Of 29, Brunswick Road, Douglas, Isle Of Man, IM2 3lg
The application sought permission to insert a new window into the rear elevation of Ballure Cottage, Brunswick Road, Douglas. The property sits within a Conservation Area, which made the impact on the area's character and appearance the central planning consideration. The officer concluded that because the window faces the rear and is not visible from the public highway of Brunswick Road, it would have a neutral effect on the Conservation Area. On that basis, permission was granted subject to two conditions.
The window was approved because its position on the rear elevation means it cannot be seen from Brunswick Road or the wider public realm. The officer judged this would have a neutral effect on the character and appearance of the Conservation Area, satisfying the key planning concern.
Condition 1
The development hereby permitted shall commence before the expiration of four years from the date of this notice.
Condition 2
This permission relates to the installation of a new window as shown in drawing number MC/1/07 date stamped 15th November 2007.
