Environment Policy 32
Requires that extensions or alterations to a Registered Building which would detrimentally affect its special architectural or historical interest will not be permitted. Manx National Heritage considered the proposals would breach this due to scale, detailing and fabric loss. Application withdrawn before assessment.
Housing Policy 15
Extensions to traditionally styled countryside properties normally only approved if respecting proportion, form and appearance, and only exceptionally over 50% floorspace increase. Manx National Heritage objected that proposals did not respect existing building and would double size via extensions and attic use. Not formally assessed due to withdrawal.
no objections
Manx National Heritage objected to the proposals due to detrimental impact on the Registered Building's character and non-compliance with heritage and housing policies, while Andreas Parish Commissioners raised no objections.
Key concern: detrimental impact on the character of the Registered Building due to overwhelming scale, over-fussy detailing, and loss of original fabric

Only exceptionally will permission be granted for extensions which measure more than 50% of the existing building in terms of floor space (measured externally)."; the proposed alterations would do precisely that by virtue of their overwhelming scale and over-fussy detailing; Such a level of damage to the original structure cannot be said to conform to the basic principles of conservation
