Planning committee

Decided by Pendle Development Management Committee on 14 Apr 2026.

Refused

As officers recommended.

  • Officers advised refusal because the extension and outbuilding would be dominant and harm neighbouring outlook, amenity and privacy.
  • A neighbour objected to privacy loss from the outbuilding windows, while highways raised no objection.
  • The committee refused permission because the extension would be overbearing and harm the living environment at number 83.
