Planning committee

Decided by Rhondda Planning and Development Committee on 15 Jan 2026.

Approved

As officers recommended.

Officers advised approval because residential development was established and impacts on appearance, neighbours, highways and ecology were acceptable.
Residents objected to the scale, overdevelopment, privacy, ecology, construction impacts, highway safety and other effects.
The committee approved the application as recommended, adding a condition limiting the annex to ancillary use.

Site constraints 2

Radon affected area, class 5

An estimated 10 to 30% of homes reach the radon action level. Indicative for the 1 km square, which takes the highest class found in it; a radon test gives the answer for a building.

From the British Geological Survey and UK Health Security Agency indicative atlas. Under building regulations, as the BRE guide BR 211 (2023) sets out, new buildings and extensions need basic radon protection from class 3 in England and Wales and from class 2 in Scotland, and full protection from class 5. The class at the site itself, from the detailed BGS map, decides which.
