About this application

This is a planning application for a garage at Whitestone Nurseries Nursery Track Sutton Under Whitestonecliffe North Yorkshire YO7 2PZ. North Yorkshire has handled 3,610 applications of this type. This one was decided in 56 days, 7 days longer than North Yorkshire's typical decision time. There are no previous applications recorded at this address. We hold 918 applications in total for the YO7 postcode area.

Why it was refused

  1. The proposed extensions, particularly the two-storey northern extension, would dominate the existing bungalow because of their size, height and differing roof forms. They would appear prominent in views from the adjacent public right of way, harming the character and appearance of the dwelling and surrounding countryside. The benefits of additional accommodation would not outweigh this harm. The proposal is therefore contrary to Policies E1, S5 and E7 of the Hambleton Local Plan, Policies DP3(1), DP3(2)(g), DP3(3) and N2(1)(a) of the National Planning Policy Framework (August 2026), and the Domestic Extensions Supplementary Planning Document (October 2022).

From the council's decision notice.
