Current Planning & Licensing Applications incl Tracked Applications 20/00603/FUL Conversion of dwelling into two self-contained dwellings (1x3 bed and 1x4bed) with associated internal/external alterations and subdivision of curtilage into two and associated parking facilities. | Thackhams Barn Thackhams Lane Hartley Wintney Hook Hampshire RG27 8JG No Objection 20/00604/LBC Construction of an internal wall, and a brick wall and post and rail fence boundary in the rear garden (to facilitate the conversion of the building into two dwellings as per application ref: 20/00603/FUL) Thackhams Barn Thackhams Lane Hartley Wintney Hook Hampshire RG27 8JG The current application seeks to return the building to its original state and therefore there is no objection. However in other applications where a new autonomous dwelling has been created, HWPC has asked the LPA to tie the new dwelling to the host dwelling so that it shall be occupied only in conjunction with the main dwelling and at no time shall a separate dwelling be established. This measure has been implemented previously and in discussing this application HWPC would ask that consideration be given to putting such a condition in place. 20/00633/HOU pg 1 of 3 Erection of a two storey side extension, single storey front extension and part garage conversion into habitable accommodation. 3 Whinchat Close Hartley Wintney Hook RG27 8TT No Objection 20/00433/LBC Erection of a single storey side extension, insertion of ground floor front window, replacement of ground floor rear window with french doors and internal alterations including removal and addition of partitioning Cowslade Farm West Green Road Hartley Wintney Hook RG27 8JN No Comment. This is a large house set in its own ground and the footprint remains largely the same. 20/00763/HOU Proposed alterations to an existing outbuilding including insertion of a pair of French doors and new window to the rear elevation. Hazeley House Hazeley Heath Hartley Wintney Hook RG27 8LT No Objection 20/00761/LBC Proposed alterations to an existing outbuilding including insertion of a pair of French doors and new window to the rear elevation. Hazeley House Hazeley Heath Hartley Wintney Hook RG27 8LT Alterations are minor and will not be visible from the front of the main building. The window being removed matches the one in the front elevation and is to be relocated and therefore not lost to the character of the building. The new French doors should reflect the painted timber construction of the doors on the front elevation. The alterations do not harm the appearance or character of the building but improve the access to the rear garden. No Objection. 20/00330/FUL Demolition of the existing Grey House School and ancillary buildings and erection of 22 new extra care apartments and a 25 bed care home with associated landscaping and parking. Grey House Mount Pleasant Hartley Wintney Hook RG27 8PW Councillors discussed the best way forward. The application has only just been lodged and requires detailed examination on the part of the Council. The expiry date is 1st May and therefore Councillors would be interested to review any weight of feeling from the local community. Therefore it was agreed to discuss this application at the next meeting of the Planning Committee scheduled for 27th April. TRACKED APPLICATIONS 20/00295/HOU 7 Franklin Avenue, Hartley Wintney RG27 8RB Grant – HWPC comment that this represented yet another loss of medium sized family houses and an increase in the number of large family houses out of the financial reach of many. The response was that the size of buildings was only relevant to new developments. A note was made to highlight this in the HWNP review as it is a misinterpretation of wording. HWPC also requested that working hours should be conditioned rather than a suggestion. The response was that the work being undertaken was not of sufficient significance to warrant this. Councillors felt that the two construction sites No. 7 & 9 had probably not been looked at together and would bear this in mind in the future. 20/00203/HOU 9 Franklin Avenue, Hartley Wintney RG27 8RB Grant – same comments as above 20/00289/HOU Ash Cottage Cricket Green HW RG27 8PJ pg 2 of 3 Grant 20/00269/FUL The Homestead, Thackhams Lane, Hartley Wintney RG27 8JG Grant – HWPC requested that a condition be included that the annexe should not become a separate dwelling. This was actioned. 20/00299/LBC The Lamb Hotel High Street HW RG27 8NW This application has been withdrawn. It was agreed that contact should be made with Clynt Wellington to enquire what his next steps will be.
