The Tiddler 2 Commercial Road St Mawes Truro Cornwall TR2 5DN

1. 1.The proposed use of 'The Tiddler' as a washroom facility for use by the St Mawes Pier and Harbour Company would likely generate noise and activity levels materially higher than the existing lawful residential use of the property. By reason of the potential intensity and nature of the proposed use, including internal noise from showering, increased visitor movements to and from the property, and the potential for people to congregate within and outside the premises whilst waiting to access the facilities, the development would result in unreasonable noise disturbance and harm to the living conditions of occupiers of neighbouring residential properties. In the absence of sufficient information demonstrating appropriate mitigation measures, including details of sound insulation and mechanisms to control the frequency of use and potential queuing outside, the Local Planning Authority is not satisfied that the proposal would adequately safeguard neighbouring residential amenity. The proposal is therefore considered contrary to policy CD1 (xiv) of the Roseland Neighbourhood Development Plan 2015-2030, policies 12(2) and 16(1) of the Cornwall Local Plan: Strategic Policies 2010 - 2030 and National decision-making policy P3.2 of the National Planning Policy Framework 2026.
