93 Aston End Road, Aston, Stevenage, Hertfordshire SG2 7EY
Application No 3/20/0862/HH
Demolition of outbuildings, relocation of swimming pool, erection of an outbuilding with spa facilities, garage, office and annexe at 93 Aston End Road, Aston, Stevenage, Hertfordshire SG2 7EY
While accepting that this Householder application is essentially for redevelopment on previously developed land and hence not inappropriate under paragraph 145 (d) of the
National Planning Policy Framework, CPRE Hertfordshire have concerns regarding this proposal in the Green Belt.
NPPF requires the replacement building to be in the same use and not materially larger than the one it replaces. The proposed footprint of this building is lower than that of the existing buildings being removed, but there is no clear indication that the existing outbuildings performed the same uses as those proposed in the replacement building. The provision of a primary habitable purpose for the building would be a material change from a use which provided ancillary storage space and contrary to the NPPF.
