| Condition Details / Information Notes |
| This development detailed in this application, by virtue of its design, siting and attachment to the Grade II Listed Building The Dairy Barn, would detract from the setting of this heritage asset and would hinder the ability to maintain and conserve the south elevation of The Dairy Barn. This would result in less than substantial harm to the significance of the heritage asset at The Dairy Barn. No public benefits have been identified that would outweigh the harm. The proposal would fail to preserve the character of the listed building and its significance as a designated heritage asset. As such the development 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. |
| In dealing with the application the Council has implemented the requirement in paragraph 39 of the National Planning Policy Framework to work with the applicant in a positive and proactive way. We have made available detailed advice in the form of our statutory policies in the Development Plan, Supplementary Planning Documents, as well as offering a full pre-application advice service in order to ensure that the applicant has been given every opportunity to submit an application which is likely to be considered favourably. Unfortunately the submitted application is not considered to accord with the advice available nor was pre-application advice sought prior to its submission. As a result the Council has been unable to seek solutions to problems arising from this application as the amendments required to make the application acceptable are substantial and are considered to materially change the development proposals. They would require further consultation to be undertaken prior to determination which could not take place within the statutory determination period specified by the Ministry of Housing, Communities & Local Government. Despite the Council’s efforts, it is considered that the current planning application should be refused for the reasons set out in the decision notice. The applicant is encouraged to seek pre-application advice prior to the submission of any further formal planning application. |
