Condition Details / Information Notes
By virtue of the siting of the proposed development and the siting, size, scale and appearance of previous extensions at the dwelling, the proposed extension would result in a harmful cumulative impact of development to the dwelling. This would result in less than substantial harm to the significance of the heritage asset at 41 Merstow Green. No public benefits have been identified that would outweigh the harm. The proposal would fail to preserve the character of the host building and its significance as a designated heritage asset. As such it would not accord with the conservation aims of policies SWDP6, SWDP21 and SWDP24 of the South Worcestershire Development Plan 2016 (SWDP). The proposal is also not considered to meet the requirements of the National Planning Policy Framework including chapters 12 and 16 as well as Section 66 of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990.
