Proposal

Proposed rear extension to provide enlarged living accommodation for a large family, together with a modest projection to the front elevation to create a more spacious and clearly defined main entrance. While the roof pitch and ridge height are proposed to be increased, the overall form, character and appearance of the original bungalow will be retained. Data via plota.co.uk

Site constraints 4

Registered park or garden 27 m away: Talygarn
Its setting is a consideration for work nearby.
Registered parks and gardens, battlefields, world heritage sites and protected wrecks are designated heritage assets: harm needs clear and convincing justification.
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.
