®Planning appeal decision
36 Shepherd Lane, Thurnscoe, Rotherham, S63 0JS
Planning appeal 3300685 at 36 Shepherd Lane, Thurnscoe, Rotherham, S63 0JS (Barnsley Metropolitan Borough Council) was allowed on 20 February 2023 by Inspector Phillips A, by written representations. The main issue, as the Inspector framed it: the effect of the development on the setting of the Grade II listed building known as Hall Farmhouse and the special historical and architectural qualities it possesses and the character and appearance of the area, generally.
• Development has taken place pursuant to planning permission ref: 2019/1574 (Two storey side extension and single storey rear extensions to dwelling and erection of detached garage/garden store) granted by the Council on 5 March 2020 and planning permission ref: 2019/0646 (Two-storey side extension and single storey rear extensions to dwelling and erection of detached garage/garden store). However, the development which has been constructed on site is not in accordance with the approved plans and conditions on either planning application granted by the Council. The development has therefore been constructed in a way which is materially different to that approved by the Council and therefore does not have planning permission

What decided it
