1.The access road serving the site is considered to be inadequate to serve the development proposed by reason of its restricted width, lack of passing provision and its severely restricted levels of visibility at its junction with the U69364 - North Market Road. The proposal, if permitted, would be likely to give rise to conditions detrimental to highway safety contrary to Policies TCM13 and HOU7/HOU8 (criterion (C)) of the adopted Great Yarmouth Borough-Wide Local Plan.
2.The site is situated in the Winterton Conservation Area and despite the fact that an attempt has been made to replicate the appearance of a traditional boat store or net store by adopting a similar style and the use of sympathetic materials, the proposed dwelling, in terms of its scale, would be overdominant and out of keeping with the surroundings. Furthermore, the siting of the proposed dwelling in such close proximity to the southern boundary of the site would lead to conditions detrimental to the amenities of adjoining residents by reason of loss of outlook, daylight, sunlight, and loss of privacy. The positioning of the dwelling, particularly the driveway thereto, could also result in potential damage to a willow tree on the site which currently derives protection from being within the Conservation Area. Consequently, the Borough Council considers that the proposal is contrary to Policies HOU7/HOU8 (criteria (A) and (E)), HOU15, HOU17, BNV10 of the adopted Great Yarmouth Borough-Wide Local Plan.
