Informative Notes:
1 )Reasons for granting: A single storey side extension is proposed to The Old Barns & Stables at Rectory Farm. The proposal would infill a corner position between the side of the existing dwelling and the sitting room/ outdoor room to the side of the rear projection. At present on the siting of the proposal there is a small area of decking which is covered space. Given the siting of the proposal, it would not have a material impact on the residential amenities of any neighbouring residential properties. The host dwelling is within a farm complex and the proposal would not be readily visible from the immediate street scene. The proposal has been designed to infill a corner gap and the height of the proposal is significant lower than the ridge of the main dwelling. It is therefore considered that it would appear as a subservient extension to the main dwelling. It is considered that the proposal would not have a material impact on the character and appearance of the area. The Parish Council were consulted and have raised no objection. The application was subject to public consultation and no representations have been received. The proposal as a whole is considered to be in conformity with Policy HQ1 of the Local Plan, and Section 11 of the Design Guide.Reasons for granting: A single storey side extension is proposed to The Old Barns & Stables at Rectory Farm.

5 )Will a new extension affect your Council Tax Charge? The rate of Council Tax you pay depends on which valuation band your home is placed in. This is determined by the market value of your home as at 1 April 1991. Your property's Council Tax band may change if the property is extended.  The Council Tax band will only change when a relevant transaction takes place. For example, if you sell your property after extending it, the new owner may have to pay a higher band of Council Tax. If however you add an annexe to your property, the Valuation Office Agency may decide that the annexe should be banded separately for Council Tax.  If this happens, you will have to start paying Council Tax for the annexe as soon as it is completed. If the annexe is occupied by a relative of the residents of the main dwelling, it may qualify for a Council Tax discount or exemption.  Contact the Council for advice on 0300 300 8306.
