A planning inspector has granted consent for a conservatory extension on a Burley home, overruling a refusal by New Forest NPA. The planning appeal was lodged by Mr and Mrs Dibben for 2 Durmast Cottages, Bisterne Close, Burley. The inspector explained in his adjudication that permission had been granted by the NPA in September 2024 for a two-storey extension, alterations to doors and windows and an outbuilding within the 30% extension limit policy rule with permitted development rights for further extensions removed. Planning (stock)But the inspector said when he visited the site he saw that extension had not been built and only limited work undertaken with some window alterations. Granting consent for the new conservatory extension, he said it would reflect the form and detailing of the adjoining dwelling, which already incorporates a comparable conservatory, and would reinstate a degree of symmetry between the pair.
