Land southwest of Weeton Road opposite the Millers Arms, Singleton, Lancashire, FY6 8LL — Fylde Borough Council — Appeal Decisions Appeal Decisions APP/M2325/W/25/3366523 & APP/M2325/W/25/3370864 4. As the appeal sites lie within the Singleton Conservation Area (CA) I have had regard to the statutory duty to pay special attention to the desirability of preserving or enhancing the character or appearance of that area as set out at Section 72(1) of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990. 5. Although the Council has not found harm in relation to the Grade II listed former fire engine machine house, it has highlighted its presence. As Section 66(1) of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990 requires decision makers to have special regard to the desirability of preserving the setting of a listed building, I have included it in my reasoning. Main Issue 6. The main issue in both Appeals A and B is whether the proposals would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Singleton CA and whether they would preserve the setting of the Grade II listed former fire engine machine house. Reasons 7. The CA is compact, and comprises the village of Singleton, remodelled as an estate village during the late nineteenth century by the Preston Cotton magnate Thomas Miller.

Land southwest of Weeton Road opposite the Millers Arms, Singleton, Lancashire, FY6 8LL — Fylde Borough Council — Appeal Decisions In addition, the boundary of the CA extends beyond the village to include adjoining farms and farmland. I consider that the significance of the CA, insofar as it is relevant to the appeal proposals, is derived from its predominantly residential character and its linear built form. 8. The village contains many modest semi-detached cottages from the nineteenth century, which are concentrated centrally along Church Road and Station Road. Towards the edges of the village there are detached and terraced dwellings, some that predate the formation of the estate village, and others more recent additions. 9. The appeal site currently contributes positively to the CA by forming part of the open farmland setting to the village. Both appeal proposals would result in the loss of that openness and alter views into and out of the built-up area of the village. This includes views from the public house, The Millers Arms, towards Blackpool. However, as the site is allocated for residential development, that loss of openness and the effect on such views have already been accepted. 10.

Land southwest of Weeton Road opposite the Millers Arms, Singleton, Lancashire, FY6 8LL — Fylde Borough Council — Appeal Decisions The footprint, height and depth of the dwellings proposed within Appeals A and B, would be greater than the nineteenth century estate cottages within the CA. Nonetheless, the character and appearance of the CA is also made up of dwellings and non-residential buildings that are of a greater scale and massing than the estate cottages. On the periphery of the village, where the appeal site is located, there are many more substantially scaled buildings of varied design. These include the Millers Arms, the dwellings within Dumbreck Court, and agricultural buildings. In the context of such buildings, the semi-detached dwellings proposed in both appeals would not appear to be of an inappropriate scale or massing. Furthermore, they would maintain the prevailing residential character and linear form of development of the CA. 11. Accordingly, for the above reasons, the Appeal A and B proposals would not appear as incongruous forms of development. Whilst I acknowledge both schemes would be in a prominent position on the edge of the CA, the side gable wall that would be presented in views approaching the village would contain visual interest https://www.gov.uk/planning-inspectorate 2

Land southwest of Weeton Road opposite the Millers Arms, Singleton, Lancashire, FY6 8LL — Fylde Borough Council — Appeal Decisions Appeal Decisions APP/M2325/W/25/3366523 & APP/M2325/W/25/3370864 through the inclusion of several openings and architectural features. Furthermore, in both cases the visual impact of the development would be softened by planting. Therefore, such prominence does not alter my findings in this regard. 12. The additional single detached dwelling, proposed within Appeal B, would introduce additional built form into the CA when compared to the Appeal A proposal. However, given the larger area of the Appeal B site, the plot widths in that scheme would not be significantly narrower than the four-dwelling proposal of Appeal A. There would remain ample space between the buildings to ensure that the development proposed in Appeal B would not appear as a cramped or contrived form of development. 13. The symmetry of the Appeal A proposal is not replicated in Appeal B due to the introduction of the additional detached dwelling. Nevertheless, whilst much of the residential development within the village is grouped in pairs of detached and semi-detached properties, the character and appearance of the CA is also made up of dwellings and non-residential buildings that follow a different pattern of development.

Land southwest of Weeton Road opposite the Millers Arms, Singleton, Lancashire, FY6 8LL — Fylde Borough Council — Appeal Decisions There are single detached dwellings within the village, and buildings within the immediate context of the appeal sites do not reflect the symmetry that the Council has highlighted. As such, the absence of symmetry in such a context would not be alien or out of keeping. 14. The Council has not raised objections to the design and facing materials of the semi-detached dwellings which are proposed in both Appeal A and B and based on my observations I agree. The front elevation of the additional, detached, dwelling of Appeal B would be asymmetrical in its appearance. However, its design would otherwise be consistent with the appearance of the proposed semi- detached dwellings, and given the variety of building design within the village, it would not appear as a discordant, or harmful, addition to the CA. 15. The significance and special interest of the Grade II listed fire engine house is derived from its associative value as part of the nineteenth century remodelling of Singleton by Thomas Miller. It is also derived from its aesthetic value arising from its attractive design. 16.

Land southwest of Weeton Road opposite the Millers Arms, Singleton, Lancashire, FY6 8LL — Fylde Borough Council — Appeal Decisions Although the land comprising the site of Appeals A and B is within the setting of the listed building, there is no evidence before me that supports the conclusion that the land ever had a functional relationship with the listed building. Furthermore, due to the intervening buildings and highway, the listed building does not have a close relationship with the appeal sites. Accordingly, I find that the Appeal A and B proposals would not harm the way that the listed building is experienced and would, thereby, preserve its setting. 17. Given the above, I conclude that the Appeal A and Appeal B proposals would not harm the character or appearance of the Singleton CA and would preserve the setting of a Grade II listed former fire engine machine house. Both proposals would, therefore, accord with policies GD7 and ENV5 of the Fylde Local Plan to 2032 (incorporating Partial Review), adopted December 2021. Such policies seek to achieve a high standard of design, require development to take account of the character and appearance of the local area, and conserve and protect the significance and historic value of designated and undesignated heritage assets.

Land southwest of Weeton Road opposite the Millers Arms, Singleton, Lancashire, FY6 8LL — Fylde Borough Council — Appeal Decisions The proposals in both appeals also accord with the similar aims of the National Planning Policy Framework (the Framework). https://www.gov.uk/planning-inspectorate 3

Land southwest of Weeton Road opposite the Millers Arms, Singleton, Lancashire, FY6 8LL — Fylde Borough Council — Appeal Decisions Appeal Decisions APP/M2325/W/25/3366523 & APP/M2325/W/25/3370864 Other Matters 18. I have had regard to the other matters raised by interested parties, including harm to the living conditions of nearby residents, inadequate local infrastructure to support the proposals, the lack of a local doctor’s surgery, and that the proposals are not in the spirit of the Singleton Trust. Nonetheless, there is nothing before me that would lead me to determine that the development proposed in both schemes would result in material harm sufficient to justify dismissing these appeals. 19. Planning is concerned with land use in the public interests. Concerns raised in respect of loss of view from, and devaluation of, neighbouring properties are, however, of a private interest, and are not, therefore, matters that I can give meaningful weight in the determination of this appeal. Conditions 20. The Council has suggested conditions in the event that I was minded to allow the appeals, which I have reviewed and amended in line with guidance and best practice, and to ensure clarity and consistency. Appeal A and Appeal B 21.

Land southwest of Weeton Road opposite the Millers Arms, Singleton, Lancashire, FY6 8LL — Fylde Borough Council — Appeal Decisions I have, in the interests of certainty, imposed a condition that specifies that the development shall be carried out in accordance with the approved plans. 22. To preserve the character and appearance of the CA, a condition is imposed on both decisions requiring implementation of the submitted boundary treatments. 23. The Council has suggested the removal of certain permitted development rights set out in the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015 (as amended) (GPDO). The conversion of the integral garages to living accommodation, of both Appeal A and B proposals, could result in an inadequate level of on-site parking and could lead to parking on the street. In this instance, the justification to protect highway safety is, in both cases, an exceptional circumstance, as required by the Framework and Planning Practice Guidance and supports the removal of permitted development rights set out at Schedule 2, Part 1, Class A of the GPDO. Appeal B only 24. I have imposed a condition requiring a Construction Method Statement so that the construction process is suitably controlled in the interests of highway safety and to protect the living conditions of nearby residents.

Land southwest of Weeton Road opposite the Millers Arms, Singleton, Lancashire, FY6 8LL — Fylde Borough Council — Appeal Decisions This is a pre-commencement condition to ensure that appropriate controls are in place before development commences. 25. Given the potential of the site to contain evidence of demolished late eighteenth or early nineteenth century, or earlier, buildings, I am satisfied that a condition is required to secure archaeological investigations. This is also a pre- commencement condition as by their nature, such investigations would largely take place before construction works commence. 26. A condition preventing the clearance of any vegetation from being undertaken outside the bird nesting season, or only following survey by an ecologist, and approval of mitigation measures is reasonable and appropriate as the appeal site https://www.gov.uk/planning-inspectorate 4

Also, in the interests of nature conservation, a condition securing biodiversity enhancement measures is required. 27. I have imposed a condition relating to foul and surface water drainage to prevent flooding and pollution. 28. To preserve the character and appearance of the CA, conditions are imposed to control the external facing materials of the development, landscaping and finished floor levels. The finished floor levels condition is also required to protect the living conditions of the occupants of the development and neighbouring occupiers. Conclusion 29. For the reasons given above, having regard to the development plan as a whole and all relevant material considerations, I conclude that Appeal A and Appeal B should be allowed.
