Single storey rear extension to replace existing kitchen addition

Summary

The proposal is to knock down an existing single storey kitchen extension and build a new one in its place. The new extension would be 7.63 metres wide, 2.16 metres deep, and 3.40 metres tall, with a lean-to pitched roof. The property sits in Whickham South and Sunniside ward. There are around 108 other properties within a short distance, so this is a well-established residential area. A document check has raised a query about whether the site may be within a conservation area. If it is, a Heritage Impact Assessment may be required — and one does not appear to have been submitted with this application.
