DM/2026/00547 - Certificate of Prop Lawful Use or Dev Approved

Proposal

The proposed works comprise the removal of an existing false chimney stack located on the roof of the dwelling. The chimney is entirely cosmetic, does not extend into the dwelling and is in a deteriorated condition, resulting in water ingress to the roof structure. The works will involve the careful removal of the false chimney stack, using existing lifting hooks, followed by making good the roof structure. This will include reinstating the roof covering to match the existing materials, including tiles/slates, battens, felt, and any necessary structural timbers. No extension or enlargement of the dwelling is proposed. There will be no change to the footprint of the building, no alteration to the roof height, and no new openings created. The proposal does not include the formation of any new access, changes to the existing access arrangements, new hard standing, or alterations to means of enclosure. There are no changes to drainage arrangements as part of the works. Data via plota.co.uk

Site constraints 2

Nutrient neutrality catchment: River Wye
New homes and overnight accommodation must show nutrient neutrality before approval.
Natural England advice: extra wastewater in these catchments harms protected habitats, so schemes must offset their nutrient load, usually through credits.
Agricultural land, grade 3a
Best and most versatile land (grades 1, 2 and 3a). Predicted from the national soil map. A site survey can differ.
Where development of farmland is needed, policy prefers poorer land over the best and most versatile (grades 1, 2 and 3a). Three sources: Natural England's post-1988 field surveys, which are definitive where they exist; the Defra predictive map for England (2025) and the Welsh Government predictive map, modelled from the soil map with 3a and 3b split; and the 1970s provisional map, which planners and other services still show, coarser and with grade 3 undivided. Where the provisional and predicted grades disagree, treat the predicted grade as the current estimate and expect an application to carry its own survey.
Not affected
Outside flood zones 2 and 3 · No scheduled monument at the site

Checked on 11 September 2026. Historic England, the Environment Agency, Natural England and council datasets, Open Government Licence. A boundary can run through a site and the council holds the definitive record: confirm with the council before relying on this.
