1.The application site is outside any area defined in the adopted Great Yarmouth Borough - Wide Local Plan where residential development might be permitted. Outside these defined areas Policy HOU10 of the plan only permits the erection of a new dwelling if it is required in connection with either agriculture, forestry, organised recreation or the expansion of an existing institution. In such cases it must be demonstrated that the new dwelling is essential in the interests of agriculture or good management and the proposal must have the unequivocal support of a suitably qualified independent appraisor. No evidence has been put forward in support of the application to satisfy the requirements of the policy the objective of which is to prevent unjustified development outside the defined development areas.
2.In the areas around settlements shown on the Borough-wide Local Plan proposals maps as "landscape important to the setting of settlements", Policy NNV5 of the local plan states the council will permit development provided a developer can demonstrate essential need or that the development would not impinge on the physical separation between settlements particularly between Great Yarmouth and Caister and Gorleston and Hopton which are major gateways to the town, or give rise to any other significant adverse impact. The proposed new house and garage would by virtue of its bulk, massing and dominance be out of scale and character with the adjoining group of buildings and be visually intrusive in this rural setting. The proposal would thereby have a significant adverse impact on the area contary to Policy NNV5 of the Local Plan
