3 Elgam Avenue Blaenavon Torfaen NP4 9QYTorfaen

Extension of existing garage footprint The current single garage fell into a state of disrepair and was subsequently dismantled. I now propose to re-build and upgrade to a larger garage, which will allow me to park 2/3 cars and motorcycles off road. The garage will be standard construction from concrete blocks, finished with PVC cladding. The garage will have an electric roller shutter door facing the carriageway and a standard door facing the house for access to the rear of the garage. I propose 2 standard windows facing the house. The front face of the garage will be 1 meter back from the edge of carriageway. Currently the rear boundary consists of wooden gates, iron access gate & small length of a privet hedge. In order to build the garage the hedge will be removed outside of any bird nesting season. To offset the removal of the hedge i plan to install 2 bird houses and small greenery around the garden. Proposed garage roof to be timber joists over boarded timber sheets and covered with corrugated steel sheeting. Rainwater will be collected with guttering and downpipes and outlet into water containers that act as sump unit. Garage will be constructed to maintain 300mm offset from either boundary.

A detached, single-storey, portal-frame forestry building specifically engineered for silvicultural operations. The structure features vertical timber or dark plastisol-coated steel profile cladding designed to blend with the adjacent woodland canopy line. The layout is optimized strictly for the secure, weather-tight storage of active forestry machinery, a mobile sawmill unit for primary processing of timber grown entirely on-site, and dedicated internal open-bay spacing for timber air-drying and seasoning. The design includes an ancillary, low-capacity biomass heating loop utilising only on-site forestry byproducts to maintain the stable ambient humidity levels legally and operationally required for specialized timber seasoning.
