Draft of Herefordshire Council’s Unitary Development Plan

H6 - Housing in smaller settlements

In the following settlements, proposals for residential development on plots arising from the infilling of small gaps between existing dwellings within the settlement will be permitted, where:

  1. the dwelling size is limited to a habitable living space of 90 sq m;

  2. the plot size is limited to a maximum area of 350 sq m; and

  3. the infill gap is no more than 30 metres in length

Developments on an appropriate infill plot larger than 30 metres will be permitted for affordable housing where a proven local need has been successfully demonstrated.

Planning permission for the extension of dwellings approved under this policy will not be permitted. Planning permissions will be subject to a condition removing permitted development rights for the conversion of an ancillary garage into habitable accommodation, or for erection of any extension or detached buildings within the curtilage.

Proposals should be compatible with the housing design and other policies of the plan and respect the character and scale of the settlement concerned.
