Prohibits development causing unacceptable loss or damage to woodland areas, especially those with public amenity or conservation value. Site in woodland area but tree removal for access was shown in approval in principle; condition requires compensatory new trees along Sound Road boundary to protect rural character.
Environment Policy 1
Presumes against development in countryside, protected for its own sake. Principle accepted via prior approval; this scheme's design and siting do not harm character in context of existing modern dwellings.
Environment Policy 2
Presumes against development in High Landscape Value and Scenic Significance areas unless no harm to landscape character. Site in such area; proposal judged not to harm due to scale matching surroundings and landscaping mitigation.
General Policy 3
Sets exceptions to presumption against development in undesignated countryside areas. Applied implicitly as site within established residential curtilage with history of approvals post-1982 designation.
General Policy 2
Requires development to respect character and appearance. Prior refusal cited failure; this revised design with stepped elevation, symmetrical windows, and traditional elements overcomes issue.
Spatial Policy 5
Cited in prior refusal for character detriment; now satisfied by improved design fitting modern context without prevailing style.
