Altered house design at Ferry Road East, Barrow upon Humber

“CONSULTATIONS Highways: The application is to change the house type and there are no changes to the road layout. Highways have no comments to make on this application. Drainage (Lead Local Flood Authority): The LLFA does not object to a variation of condition 2, but notes that any change to the house design will result in changes to the drainage; as such, the LLFA would expect these revisions to be taken into account.”

“Drawing No: 427 4 001 Rev A – Site Plan Drawing No: 427 1 003 Rev A – Proposed Plans & Elevations. The proposed amendment to the design removes the sun room from the rear elevation and replaces it with a sloped-roof single-storey element that runs across the width of the rear elevation. An additional rooflight is to be installed in the rear elevation serving the dressing room on the first floor.”

“It has been confirmed that the proposed dwelling will be constructed from the same materials – dark grey colour flat concrete Calderdale tiles, Wienerberger Heritage Blend Bricks, white uPVC plain casement windows and composite front door, and white uPVC rear/patio doors. A door has been removed from the rear elevation and relocated to the north side elevation, and the window has been removed from the garage on the front elevation.”

“PUBLICITY A site notice has been displayed and one comment has been received stating that the proposed dwelling is a much higher, larger house than previously approved. A full planning application should therefore be submitted.”

“impact on residential amenity • flood risk and drainage. Principle of development Planning permission was granted in 2024 for a dwelling on this site under reference PA/2024/443. The principle of residential development has thus been found to be acceptable. This application is to vary and remove conditions attached to that permission.”

“The amendments on the front and rear elevation are not considered to create an adverse impact on residential amenity, with the single-storey rear projection the same depth as the approved garden room and the front extension being over 25m from the nearest dwelling to the west. The amendments also alter aperture locations, with additional windows created on the ground floor and two windows removed. These windows are on the ground floor behind the proposed boundary treatment.”

“It was moved by Cllr J Davison and seconded by Cllr C Ross –”

“That planning permission be granted in accordance with the recommendations contained within the officer’s report.”
