Section 01
Development description
described as “erection of a Victorian style greenhouse consisting of metal frame with glass panels / windows built off a double skin dwarf wall”.
Section 02
Decision
The appeal is allowed, and planning permission is granted for erection of a Victorian style greenhouse consisting of metal frame with glass panels / windows built off a double skin dwarf wall at [site address] , [site address] , Kingswood, [postcode] in accordance with the terms of the application, Ref 20/02043/APP, dated 23 June 2020 and plan refs: 1410 A.01 and General Arrangement Drawing.
Section 03
Preliminary Matters
The greenhouse was erected on site prior to my site visit. I have determined the appeal accordingly.
Section 04
Main Issue
The main issue is the effect on the setting of the [name] listed building, [site address] .
Section 05
Reasons
The host dwelling is a [name] listed building that has undergone significant refurbishment works. These works extended to the outbuildings located next to the house, which are sited at right angles to one another, forming an L-shaped arrangement. The greenhouse sits between the two outbuildings. In accordance with the requirements of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990 I have paid special regard to preserving the setting of the listed building.
The outbuildings are of little or no historic interest in themselves but lie within the curtilage of the listed building. That relationship contributes to the significance of the listed building, which derives in part from the historic use of the site as a farm including the use of the outbuildings.
The greenhouse lies to the rear of the site, as seen from the road. It is not prominent in this view, being largely screened by the outbuildings, although it is more visible from the nearby public footpath. The greenhouse is not sited tightly within the crook of the outbuildings, rather being set to their rear and subordinate both in height and footprint.
The greenhouse has a somewhat ornate design, with decorative finials to the ridge, and is oriented at an angle away from the existing group, which are otherwise set parallel or at a 90 degree angle to one another. However, given the small size of the greenhouse and its lightweight appearance relative to the solid brick and timber house and outbuildings the greenhouse does not significantly affect the relationship between the house and the outbuildings, so overall preserves the setting of the listed building.
The appeal proposal therefore accords with the requirements of Policy BE1 of the Vale of Aylesbury Local Plan. This policy requires that new development should seek to conserve heritage assets in a manner appropriate to their significance, including their setting. It also accords with the requirements of the National Planning Policy Framework as they relate to the conservation of designated heritage assets.
Section 06
Conditions
The Council has not suggested any conditions. As the greenhouse has already been erected, no conditions are necessary in this instance.
Section 07
Conclusion
For the reasons set out above, the appeal succeeds.
