About this application

This is a planning application for an extension at 17 Linden Road Clevedon BS21 7SR. North Somerset has handled 17,060 applications of this type. This one was decided in 68 days, 12 days longer than North Somerset's typical decision time. The site is in the Clevedon conservation area. There has been 1 other application at this address. We hold 1,590 applications in total for the BS21 postcode area.

Why it was refused

  1. The siting, massing, design and materials of the proposed development is harmful to the character and appearance of Clevedon Conservation Area. The design detracts from the high architecture of the principal property and fails to sympathetically blend within the street scene. The proposal also introduces new street clutter which will change the open characteristics of this part of the Conservation Area. Overall, the proposals will cause less than substantial harm to the Clevedon Conservation Area and insufficient public benefits are found to outweigh the harm. The proposal is contrary to Policy DM3 of the DM Sites and Policies Plan, The Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990 (as amended), and the NPPF.
  2. Insufficient information has been provided to enable the Local Planning Authority to establish whether the proposed development would have a significant negative impact on the parking within the surrounding area. It is considered that on-site parking provision is inadequate and fails to comply with the standards set out in the North Somerset Parking Standards SPD. Therefore, unless further information can be provided which demonstrates an ability within the surrounding road network to support the increase in patients and staff, it is considered that the proposal is not in accordance with policies DM24 and DM28 of the Sites and Policies Plan (Part 1).

From the council's decision notice.
