Decision: That Planning Permission be granted, as per the officer’s recommendation, subject to the conditions as set out in Appendix 1 to the report; an additional condition requiring submission of a scheme facilitating an amended and more sympathetic treatment for the link block with less fenestration and consideration of the use of stone walling and slate tiling; an additional condition to ensure the principal entrance to the property continues to be obtained from the western elevation and to prevent vehicular access within the courtyard area.
  • Proposed dwelling adjacent to 22 Park Lane, Shifnal, TF11 9HD (16/03128/FUL) Erection of 1No dwelling and formation of vehicular access (revised resubmission).

  • Parking bays at Woodberry Close, Bridgnorth (16/03288/FUL) Formation of new parking bays (fronting numbers 6 to 12 Woodberry Close) to include bollard security and landscaping. Decision: That this application be deferred in order for the applicant, in consultation with residents, local Ward Councillors and Bridgnorth Town Council, to explore and consider alternative schemes.
  • Proposed dwelling to the south of Hopesay Farm, Hopesay (16/01597/FUL) Erection of single dwelling and formation of vehicular access. Decision: That, contrary to the officer’s recommendation, Planning Permission be refused, for the following reasons: Due to the siting, scale and design of the proposed dwelling, in particular the loss of the significant gap in the street scene and impact on views from the Shropshire Way; and the overbearing mass of the red brick built form, the proposed development would not make a positive contribution to the local character and distinctiveness and would result in an adverse change, detracting from the character and appearance of the village, Conservation Area and its AONB setting.  The proposal is therefore contrary to development plan policies CS6, CS17, MD2, MD12 and MD13 and paragraphs 58, 60, 64, 115 and 131 of the NPPF.’
  • Wigley Farm, Ludlow, SY8 3DR (16/03014/EIA) Erection of 2 No. additional poultry buildings and associated feed bins and hardstanding. Decision: That Planning Permission be granted, as per the officer’s recommendation, subject to the conditions as set out in Appendix 1 to the report.
