LOCATION: 46 Dowthorpe Hill, Earls Barton, Northampton. NN6 0PB APPLICANT: Mr and Mrs S Greenhow. PROPOSAL AND DESCRIPTION OF SITE: As described above. The development site is situated in the southern region of the Limited Development village policy line envelope of Earls Barton on the south side of Dowthorpe Hill. The rear of the property faces out on to open countryside and is the penultimate property at the eastern end of a row of 10 detached single storey dwellings, all of which constructed circa 1960s and in the same style. The land to the rear of the property slopes steeply southwards, whereas the road upon which it is located has a gradual fall from east to west. The property is set back from the highway with a small front garden and driveway to the side. The prevailing street scene along this side of Dowthorpe Hill from Allebone Road to No. 48 Dowthorpe Hill is of a series of bungalows with pitched roofs and gable ends facing the street. The front building line is staggered, but the roof ridge height line is of a gradual procession up from Allebone Road with no stepping down in heights between adjacent properties. Thus a pleasing smooth roof ridge height line is presented to the wider public. Noticeably, all of the properties in this row of ten share the same angle of pitch to their roof slopes. It is accepted that the appearance of the two storey dwellings on the north side of the street are of an eclectic mix of styles, due partly from previous planning consents for extensions to the front and side. Also accepted is the fact that the first property, known as No. 1 Allebone Road, in the row of ten bungalows of which the development site is apart is the only property with a dormer in its western roof slope. However, none of the 10 properties have dormers on their eastern roof slopes. Planning permission is being sought to extend into the roof space to accommodate first floor habitable rooms. This extension into the roof space would entail raising the eaves, roof slopes and roof ridge above the established heights of its neighbouring properties. Consequently, the angles of the proposed roof slopes will be increased from approximately 35 degrees to 40 degrees and the highway facing gable will be elongated 25a DOWTHORPEWP/2012/0093/F END 3 25 38 28 37 23 7 20 8 1 11 32 30 MOUNT PLEASANT 9 8c 12 2 11 8b Thorpe 9 8 House 8a 12 9a 30 13 17 16 14 5 SHEFFIELD 32 2 20 CLOSE WAY SHURVILLE 24 1 16 1 13 15 33 21 27 23 DOWTHORPE HILL 68 30 54 44 2 32 1 ALLEBONEROAD 8 Path (um) Planning & Local Development © Crown Copyright and database right 2012.

Also included in the scheme is the insertion of a dormer on the western roof slope and a first floor balcony on the property’s rear (southern) elevation. To accommodate the raising of the roof, the existing chimney would be removed, such that this would be the only property in a row of ten devoid of such a prominent roof line feature. RELEVANT PLANNING HISTORY: WP/2003/0530 Single storey rear kitchen and internal alterations (NB. Partially retrospective) – approved with conditions WR/1964/0171 Housing estate – approved with conditions WR/1965/0271 Residential development - approved WR/1966/0242 Garages – approved. NATIONAL AND LOCAL PLANNING POLICY: Regional Spatial Strategy 8 National Planning Policy Framework North Northamptonshire Core Spatial Strategy: Policy 13 (General Sustainable Development Principles) Policy 14 (Energy efficiency and sustainable construction) Borough Council of Wellingborough Local Plan: Policy G4 (Development within the limited development and restricted infill villages) Supplementary Planning Guidance: II: Residential Extensions IV: Planning Out Crime Supplementary Planning Document: Sustainable Design Biodiversity SUMMARY OF REPLIES TO CONSULTATIONS/REPRESENTATIONS RECEIVED: 1. Earls Barton Parish Council – no response received. 2. Borough Council of Wellingborough Design Officer – “as the property is part of a distinct/distinctive single-storey grouping in the street scene reflecting a clear underlying architectural concept, the raising of the roof structure to artificially create a first floor is incongruous and inappropriate, detrimentally affecting the character and appearance of the street”. 3. Neighbours – two representations from nos. 29 and 31 Dowthorpe Hill have been received. A summary of the issues raised by the writers are given below: No. 31 Dowthorpe Hill wrote:- • Higher roof will affect my outlook • Could devalue my property No. 29 Dowthorpe Hill wrote:- “I would like to thank you and the council for the letter you sent giving me the chance to comment on the above planning proposals. - 3 - It absolutely takes my breath away, that you have the bare faced cheek to pretend to give a toss about local opinions, and their effect on a community of a proposed alteration to a building, considering your track record, like the drastic building alterations you allowed at no.31 Dowthorpe Hill. Taking this into consideration, it can only lead me to believe in zero confidence of the "planning and building control" and what contradiction in terms that is. To not be able to tell the difference in a plan that dramatically alters a building to such an extent of not being in keeping with its surroundings plus will be out of line with other buildings of a the same nature and structure next or adjacent to it, let alone loss of view of which you definitely do not take into consideration. It really begs the question of such an organisation, are they fit for purpose? Hiding behind a committee or council is fine; unfortunately it happens in all sorts of business. But what really gets to me is that it is paid for by the taxation of the community that I live in, of which you all draw you salary, pension, holiday pay, sick pay, committee tea break catering etc. So why do you bother asking? Oh yes you have too! But, you will go ahead anyway because you know no better, and in the process disturb in more ways than one, the surrounding community. Take this process as an example; you notify all parties concerned, so you will upset neighbours who object, and will fall out of friendship in the process. If you took a proper look at the surroundings, and did not hide behind "consultation notes" and reasons to back away from neighbourhoods falling out, plus looked at the peoples homes and their views from rooms etc, not "Core Spatial Strategy" or planning policies, in so far as not superseded by CSS …………….. now I mean what the heck is all that about???? Have you ever had to go the doctors to be given a diagnosis, let alone in their Latin names, and then walked out saying thanks, now what the hell was that all about? Oh and 21 days to find out or it is too late.

  • Report Report
    Report Report GVA 10 Stratton Street London W1J 8JR Independent Assessment of the Retail Strategy for North Northamptonshire and the Implications of the Rushden Lakes Proposals On behalf of the North Northamptonshire Planning Authorities April 2012 gva.co.uk North Northamptonshire Planning Authorities ADDENDUM – IMPLICATIONS OF THE NPPF Since completing this report, the Government has published the new National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF). As expected, the NPPF sets a presumption in favour of sustainable development. It advocates a plan led system, with a presumption in favour of development that accords with the development plan. The NPPF maintains the core principles of PPS4 in as far as it relates to planning for retailing and town centres. Planning policies should be positive and promote competitive town centres, and pursue policies to promote their viability and vitality. The NPPF retains the key retail policy: the sequential test and impact test. Local authorities should require applications for main town centre uses to be located in town centres, then in edge of centres, and only if sustainable sites are not available should out of centre sites be considered. Applicants and local planning authorities should demonstrate flexibility on issues such as format and scale. It states that, when assessing applications for retail, leisure and office development outside of town centres, which are not in accordance with an up to date Local Plan, local planning authorities should require an impact assessment to consider; the impact of the proposal on existing, committed and planned investment in centres within the catchment; and the impact on town centre vitality and viability.
