Demolition of Existing Dwelling and Build 6 Flats (Application Refused, June 2018 and an Appeal against Refusal was Dismissed in November 2018)
This Planning Application (18/02274/F) for a block of 6 flats is the latest in a series of applications that have been submitted to develop this site and follows the recent Refusal of an Application (18/00317/F) to build a block of 7 flats.
In 2016 an application (16/05502/F) was refused for redeveloping the site to include two pairs of semi-detached houses. Also, an Appeal against that Refusal was subsequently Dismissed by the Planning Inspector.
Subsequently, a successful, application (17/04773/H) for side and rear extensions to the existing dwelling (plus a new 2-berth detached garage) was granted in October 2017 and a further application (17/06194/CP) for a Lawful Development Certificate for a new-build 4-berth single-storey detached garage followed shortly afterwards and was issued in December 2017. Both of these successful applications remain extant.

Notwithstanding the extant planning permission that was previously granted in October 2017 - for side and rear extensions, plus a new 2-berth detached garage (17/04773/H) - this latest application (17/06194/CP) for a new-build 4-berth single-storey detached garage makes no reference to the previous successful application - in any shape or form.
