DH(a) Residential Extensions
Proposals for rear, side and other additions (including basements) should be limited to a scale and design appropriate to the building and locality. They will need to meet the following criteria:
- Two storey extensions to the side of semi detached houses will not be permitted unless they are designed to avoid a ‘terracing effect’ in conjunction with adjacent extensions.
- Flat roofs will not be accepted on side or rear extensions when they would be visible from the public highway.
- All new roof extensions should be designed to respect the scale and character of the host building, the street scene and the surrounding area and respect the amenities of adjacent occupiers.
