Policy S/C/SMS: Garages at St Matthews Street and Norfolk Street

• Site area of 0.1 hectares.
• Capacity for approximately 12 homes.
   

1.  Development proposals must demonstrate how they will meet the following requirements:

     a. Development should retain and incorporate the existing mature tree and footpath to the north of the site within the new public realm as part of a landscape-led approach to design;

     b. Buildings must be designed, with regard to building heights reflective of the local context, mass and contextually appropriate materials, to ensure no unacceptable adverse impacts on the local or wider skyline, and the wider settings of the Mill Road Conservation Area, the Mill Road Cemetery Registered Park and Garden, and the Church of St Matthew Grade II listed building;

     c. Given the area’s potential for archaeological remains, development proposals must be accompanied by an appropriate archaeological assessment which includes information on the significance of the heritage asset, including the extent, character and condition of the archaeological resource and the likely impact of the development on the archaeological remains; and

     d. The design and layout of any development proposal must account for the proximity of the Blue Moon pub in terms of noise and light pollution.
