Extensions & alterations

Proposal

The proposed development comprises the formation of a single off-street parking space within the existing front garden of the dwellinghouse. The works will include the removal of an area of existing lawn measuring approximately 5.0 metres by 3.0 metres, excavation to the required depth, installation of a permeable MOT Type 3 sub-base, construction of a permeable gravel surface, and installation of suitable edging to retain the gravel. The proposed parking space will be formed entirely within the residential curtilage of the property. Existing drainage infrastructure, including the inspection chamber within the site, will be retained and remain accessible. No extension to the dwellinghouse or other buildings is proposed, and no impermeable surfacing will be installed. Data via plota.co.uk
