Recommendation: Conditional approval Conditions: 1. Time limit 2. Accord with plans 3. Construction Environmental Management Plan 4. No foul water to enter estuary 5. Tree protection measures 6. External lighting Informative re MMO licence Key issues for consideration: Principle, design, visual impact, impact on marine environment. Site Description: The site is situated in the Bridgend Area of Newton Ferrers, on the hillside above Newton Creek. The dwelling which currently exists on the site was a replacement for an earlier property, and has now been completed for several years. Its contemporary design is now a striking but arguably not unwelcome feature of the local landscape (the scheme was allowed on appeal). The site benefits from direct access onto Newton Creek at the bottom of a sloping garden, where there is an existing timber jetty. The Proposal: Permission is sought to construct a single storey outbuilding to be used as a boathouse ancillary to the existing dwelling on the site.
