(Listed Building Consent) at National Westminster Bank Oxford Road, Hay-On-Wye Hereford HR3 5AJ 15/11923/FUL N: 212970 Mr L Williams for Proposed restoration Refuse 23 June 2015 Delegated E: 324961 of access track to form vehicle access Decision drive (Full Application) at Llwyn Y Fedw Cottage, Tyla Road, Govilon Monmouthshire NP7 9RU Reasons:- The works proposed would constitute an unattractive visual intrusion, which will introduce a hard engineered route into a traditional pastoral landscape of open grazed common. It will detract strongly from its character and appearance, as well as its amenity as access land and create a physical barrier across the common. The creation of the parking area adjacent to the property will further result in the intrusion of residential development into this area of the common and detract from its character and appearance. The proposal will have an unacceptable landscape and visual impact and fails to comply with policies 1 and SP3 of the Brecon Beacons National Park Local Development Plan (2013) and guidance within the Landscape and Development Supplementary Planning Guidance (2014). Insufficient information has been submitted to demonstrate that the proposal would not have an unacceptable impact upon the free flow of traffic and highway safety through the lack of detail regarding the necessary visibility splays and whether such splays can be achieved within the confines of the application site area and details of the proposed link with the adjoining highway. The development is therefore deemed to be contrary to Policy 59 of the Brecon Beacons National Park Local Development Plan (2013). 15/11931/FUL N: 233597 Ms Katie Holmes for To change a Permit 15 May 2015 Delegated E: 315515 deconsecrated disused chapel to A3 Decision (Full Application) at Tabernacle , Regent Street, Talgarth Powys LD3 0DB 15/11942/DISC N: 206810 Enviroparks (Hirwain) Ltd for Discharge Permit 29 May 2015 Delegated ON E: 293871 Conditons 3, 6,7,8,13,15, Decision 16,17,22,23,24,27,28,30,35, 36, 38 and 41 pursuant to planning permission 08/02488/FUL (Approval of details reserved bycondition) at Fifth Avenue, Hirwaun Industrial Estate, Hirwaun Aberdare 15/11954/LBC N: 228455 Miss Aloysius Hourigan for Proposed Permit 22 May 2015 Delegated E: 304479 installation of lift (Listed Building Decision Consent) at Ursuline Convent , 1 Glamorgan Street, Brecon Powys LD3 7DW 15/11960/FUL N: 221736 Mr And Mrs P And J Morris for Permit 22 June 2015 Delegated E: 316907 Conversion of barn to create 2 holiday Decision units (Full Application) at Upper Gaer Farm, Cwmdu, Crickhowell NP8 1SB 15/11961/LBC N: 221736 Mr And Mrs P And J Morris for Permit 18 June 2015 Delegated E: 316907 Conversion of barn to create 2 holiday Decision units (Listed Building Consent) at Upper Gaer Farm, Cwmdu, Crickhowell Powys NP8 1SB 15/11980/DISC N: 206878 Enviroparks (Hirwain) Ltd for Discharge Permit 29 May 2015 Delegated ON E: 293853 Conditons 9, 11, 20, 21 and 40 of Decision permission 08/02488/FUL (Approval of details reserved bycondition) at Fifth Avenue, Hirwaun Industrial Estate, Hirwaun Aberdare 15/11986/FUL N: 211780 Mr Wayne Vaughan for Proposed new Permit 15 May 2015 Delegated E: 305747 four bedroom dwelling (Full Application) Decision at Plot 2 , Taf Fechan Houses, Pontsticill Merthyr Tydfil CF48 2UW 15/12006/LBC N: 215253 Mr Simon Brown for Amendments to Permit 26 June 2015 Delegated E: 325064 approval 10/04641/LBC to change the Decision internal layout and introduce internal wall insultation throughout the building.

General Character and Plan Form 5. Landscape Setting 6. Historic Development and Archaeology 7. Spatial Analysis 8. Character Analysis 9. Definition of Special Interest of the Conservation Area 10. The Conservation Area Boundary 11. Summary of Issues 12. Community Involvement 13. Local Guidance and Management Proposals 14. Contact Details 15. Bibliography Review May 2016 1. Introduction Section 69 of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990 imposes a duty on Local Planning Authorities to determine from time to time which parts of their area are „areas of special architectural or historic interest, the character or appearance of which it is desirable to preserve or enhance‟ and to designate these areas as conservation areas. Hay-on-Wye is one of four designated conservation areas in the National Park. Planning authorities have a duty to protect these areas from development which would harm their special historic or architectural character and this is reflected in the policies contained in the National Park’s Local Development Plan. There is also a duty to review Conservation Areas to establish whether the boundaries need amendment and to identify potential measures for enhancing and protecting the Conservation Area. The purpose of a conservation area appraisal is to define the qualities of the area that make it worthy of conservation area status. A clear, comprehensive appraisal of its character provides a sound basis for development control decisions and for developing initiatives to improve the area.
