Summary
The owner of a detached house on Ham Road, Wanborough wants to add a single-storey glazed veranda to the back of the property. This is a glass-roofed covered area at ground level. The house sits in the North Wessex Downs, a large area of protected countryside. The Calley Arms, a protected old building, is about a minute's walk away. A heritage statement has not been submitted with the application, which the council may ask for. Most neighbours are shielded by other buildings and are unlikely to see the veranda directly. Around 8 properties have a clear line of sight towards the site from the east and north.
