Consultations 6.1 Historic England:- Have made no comments on this application. 6.2 NYCC Heritage Services:- There are no known archaeological constraints to this development. 7. Representations 7.1 None 8. Summary of Principal Planning Issues 8.1 The design and scale of the development and its likely impact upon the character, appearance and setting of the host listed building. 9. Analysis The design and scale of the development and its likely impact upon the character, appearance and setting of the host listed building 9.1 The building is considered to be acceptable in design terms having regard to its location within the curtilage of a Listed Building. It will incorporate a pitched roof and is to be constructed using natural stone and natural stone slates, materials that will match/suitably harmonise with those used in the construction of other buildings within the property curtilage. Additionally it will incorporate painted or stained timber windows and doors (vertically planked in the case of the latter) and stone window and door surrounds. 9.2 The building will not be unduly large (measuring approximately 8.5 metres (length) x 4.2 metres (width) x 4.9 metres (maximum height to ridge). Furthermore, whilst it will essentially be a two storey structure this will only be apparent when it is viewed from the rear (east) as differences in land levels mean that when viewed from the front (west) it will appear as a single storey building. With this in mind it is considered that the building will also be acceptable in scale terms. 9.3 Finally, it is contended that the building will not unduly harm the setting of the adjoining listed building. It will be a freestanding structure standing approximately 15 metres from, and to the rear of, the main listed house. Furthermore, given its proposed position within the property curtilage it will not be viewed against the backdrop of the main house when viewed from any public vantage point. 10. Conclusion 10.1 It is contended that the proposed stable building will preserve the setting of the adjoining listed building and as such will comply with the requirements of Section 12 of the National Planning Policy Framework. 11. Recommendation 11.1 That Listed Building Consent be granted subject to the following conditions. 12. Conditions 1. The works hereby permitted shall be begun before the expiration of three years from the date of this permission. Reason:- To ensure compliance with section 18 of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990, as amended. 2. The approved plans comprise the Location Plan, received by the Local Planning Authority on 10th November 2015, and Drawing Number 02 Rev ‘B’, received on 4th January 2016. The development shall be completed in accordance with the approved plans except where conditions attached to this planning permission indicate otherwise or where alternative details have been subsequently approved following an application for a non-material amendment. Reason: To specify the approval and for the avoidance of doubt. 3. The external walls and roof of the proposed building shall be constructed respectively of randomly laid natural stone and natural stone slate. Reason:- To preserve the character and setting of this listed building, in accordance with the requirements of Section 12 of the National Planning Policy Framework. 4. All new heads, cills, window and door surrounds shall be constructed of natural ashlar stone. Reason:- To preserve the character and setting of this listed building, in accordance with the requirements of Section 12 of the National Planning Policy Framework. 5. The new window frames and doors shall be constructed of timber and painted or stained brown to match the frames of the windows within the main house, unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Local Planning Authority. The new doors shall be constructed of vertically planked timber. Reason:- To preserve the character and setting of this listed building, in accordance with the requirements of Section 12 of the National Planning Policy Framework.
