Part single-storey, part two/three storey rear/side extension, alterations to house, demolition of existing extension and outbuildings, removal of 2no. trees and construction of a new swimming pool.

In the rear grounds:1/erect a new wooden 9x1.5m (lxh) fence and a 2x1m (lxh) extension to an existing picket fence close off an area to assist with child safeguarding.2/ to provide more outdoor storage for church equipment. Add two sheds, 3x3x1.75m and 2.75x2x1.75m (wxdxh). DC/15/3361/FUL and DC/16/1077/AME previously granted permission for outdoor storage and an artificial turf area with associated fencing and hedging in the rear grounds. Note the area stated of 270 square meters in the application is the area of the affected portion of the rear grounds. Permission is required because the grounds lie within a conservation area and form part of a curtilage of a grade 2 listed building (listing is subject to ecclesiastical exemption and is the remit of the trustees). The long fence will provide a physical barrier to people from the street casually entering the rear grounds when we have children outside. It will prevent children straying into the front areas of the grounds where they have easy access to Quay Street. The short picket fence extension will complete the enclosure. Children are on our site from our community parent and child toddler groups and our church services/youth events. The long fence will extend from the rear of the church building to the holly hedging (see#1). It will be mostly hidden from Quay Street and it will be obscured from Crown Place Maltings residents by the 3m high holly hedge. The fence would be of a wooden construction, of a horizontal lattice type (see #2) with a gate on the existing path. The additional storage would be adjacent to the church car park. It will replace the existing compost areas with enclosed storage and add an additional shed next to the existing bike rack. These will be of metal construction and to 1.75m high consistent with the existing shed. Whilst the boundary wall is 1.2m high on our grounds side, there are existing shrubs behind the compost area up to 2m high and these will remain.
