I submitted two appeals at this property within the Green Belt. The first was allowed for a privacy screen to the rear of the property at first floor level. The second appeal against a new high front wall was dismissed due to the impact on the openness of the Green Belt.

We submitted an application for this scheme which was refused but following our appeal statement, the application was approved. The Inspector concluded “I conclude that the effect of the proposed extensions on the character and appearance of the existing dwelling and its surroundings would not be harmful – although noticeably larger The Chase will remain a handsome building. There would therefore be no conflict with Policies DG1 & H14 of the Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead Local Plan 2003″
Following refusal of an application for a rear/side extension at first floor level, we drafted the appeal statement to justify why it should be developed and it was allowed by the Inspector in January 2018. The owner emailed: “Amazing news! Fiona, thank you so very much, I’m delighted – you’re wonderful!”
We submitted an application to amend a number of restrictive conditions attached to a permission from 2014 including increasing the number of children to 55, changing the hours to 07.00 – 18.30 Monday – Friday and 09.00-14.00 on Saturdays and removing the personal permission. This was granted within 8 weeks.
An Enforcement Notice was served on the owners on a remote part of Datchet for the use as a Green Waste depot. The Council issued the notice as they were concerned about the impact of the process of mulching and chipping trees upon the openness of the Green Belt, flooding issues, the impact on neighbours and on the local economy. The appeal has been submitted on grounds a, f and g – that planning permission should be granted for the use, that planning conditions could overcome any perceived harm and that 6 months is not long enough to comply with the Notice due to the drying time required for the trees to save them from being dumped in land fill.

I wrote the planning justification for the retention of a detached garage adjacent to a detached dwellinghouse in the Green Belt. The Inspector agreed that the garage would not harm the openness of the Green Belt and approved the scheme for a temporary period of 2 years.
Planning permission granted on appeal for the retention of a log cabin at the end of a garden in Twickenham for the use by the owner for guests. Whilst the Council’s planners had recommended approval for this, the Planning Committee refused the application on grounds of noise and disturbance and use by those not associated by the owners. However, Cameron Jones Planning successfully argued that the building would be entirely incidental to the main dwellinghouse, that there would be no harm to neighbours and it was granted permission on appeal.
The owner of a semi-detached dwelling approached us following refusal of planning permission for a first floor side extension. I advised that an amendment could overcome the concerns raised by the Council over infilling a gap between the properties. The Council refused the amended scheme and I submitted an appeal against the refusal. Decision pending.
