60, King Edward Road, Onchan, Isle Of Man, IM3 2at
Permission was granted for the installation of a replacement window at Leafield, 60 King Edward Road, Onchan. The property is a large two-storey semi-detached dwelling that faces the Manx Electric Railway and is a Registered Property (number 124). The officer's report noted that the window currently in place is not the original, as the original would have been subdivided into four equal units. The application was made alongside an associated listed building consent application (08/01792/CON). The application was decided by delegated authority and was permitted on 17 December 2008.
The application was permitted on a delegated basis. The officer recommended approval, and the decision was issued on 17 December 2008. The evidence notes that the existing window was not the original, which was relevant to the assessment of the replacement.
Paragraph 7.7
Onchan Written Statement 2000 (Planning Circular 1/2000)
Alterations and Extensions to a Registered Building
Planning Policy Statement 1/01
POLICY RB/5 ALTERATIONS AND EXTENSIONS In considering whether to grant planning approval for development which affects a registered building or its setting and in considering whether to grant registered building consent for any works, the Department shall have special regard to the desirability of preserving the building or its setting or any features of special architectural or historic interest which it possesses. Registered building consent is required for the building's alteration in any way which would affect its special architectural or historic character. There will be a general presumption against alteration or extension of registered buildings, except where a convincing case can be made, against the criteria set out in this section, for such proposals. Applicants for registered building consent for alteration or extension to a registered building must be able to justify their proposals. They will be required to show why the works which would affect the character of the registered building are desirable or necessary and they should provide full information to enable the Department to assess the likely impact of their proposals on the special architectural or historic interest of the building and on its setting. Where registered buildings are the subject of successive applications for alteration or extension, consideration will also be given to the cumulative affect upon the building's special interest as a result of several minor works which may individually seem of little consequence.
