Environment Policy 2
Protects Areas of High Landscape or Coastal Value (AHLV) where landscape character is paramount unless no harm shown or essential location. Officer noted site's AHLV designation but assessed proposal as not harming character due to screening and modest scale sited near existing buildings.
Environment Policy 19
Permits equestrian development in countryside only if no amenity loss, no loss of Classes 1-2 ag land, and highways can accommodate traffic. Satisfied as Class 3 land, private use avoids traffic intensity, minimal visual impact from screening, and highways confirmed no issues post-clarification.
Environment Policy 21
Prohibits animal stabling buildings detrimental to countryside via siting/design/size/finish; requires purpose-specific form avoiding cavity walls. Acceptable due to low height, partial visibility mitigated by trees, sympathetic render matching dwelling, and stable-like appearance despite cavity construction.
Time limit
The development hereby permitted shall commence before the expiration of four years from the date of this notice.
