Official record
Development description
Previously approved under planning reg ref 1640/07 access to the basement from the rear garden, where a raised structure, approx 2.628 meters in height, with roof-lights was proposed and approved. This structure was not built within the five years of the validity of the planning permission and for the avoidance of any planning doubt retention permission is being sought. Retention permission is also sought for a portion of the garden that was walled on three sides and a roof was placed over this portion of the garden to form a covered garage and garden store and a new vehicular entrance at the rear.
