Nature of Proposals
Erection of single storey rear extension, demolition of existing garage and erection of replacement
garage with studio above and installation of dormer windows to front and rear 
Site
21 Thornly Park Avenue, Paisley, PA2 7SD 
Description
This application seeks consent for the erection of a single storey rear extension, demolition of an
existing garage and the erection of a replacement garage with studio above, as well as the
installation of dormer windows to the front and rear at 21 Thornly Park Avenue, Paisley. 
The site fronts the road to the south and is bound by a range of residential property types to all
other sides. The property itself incorporates a pitched roof and is finished in grey wet cast render
and concrete roof tiles. 
The proposed rear extension would extend to approximately 5 metres from the rear elevation by
14.8 metres in width. The proposal incorporates a pitched roof design which measures
approximately 4.3 metres in height overall. 
The proposed garage with studio above would extend to an approximate length of 7 metres at a
width of 6m, reaching an overall height of 5.7m, with finishing materials to include brick, roughcast
and concrete roof tiles to match the existing dwelling. The rear dormer window would extend to a
length of 12.8m at a height of 2.2m and projection of 3.7m, with the front dormer window
extending to a length of 12.8m at a height of 3m and projection of 4.1m.

Material considerations
Renfrewshire Householder Development Guidance Planning Advice Note 2016 
Planning legislation requires that planning decisions are made in accordance with the
Development Plan unless material considerations indicate otherwise. The proposal therefore
requires to be assessed in terms of the policies and material considerations set out above. 
Publicity 
An Advert was placed on the press on for the following reasons - Development within a
Conservation Area 
Objections/Representation 
One objections has been received, the substance of which can be summarised as follows:- 
1. The proposed extensions would constitute overdevelopment within the conservation area. 
2. The front dormer covers a significant portion of the roof area contrary to policy. 
3. The balcony and extensions will impact on the privacy of neighbouring properties. 
4. Due to the scale of the extensions proposed there is likely to be additional noise
associated with the property. 
Consultations 
None required. 
Summary of Main Issues of: 
Environmental Statement – n/a 
Appropriate Assessment – n/a 
Design Statement – n/a 
Access Statement – n/a 
Other Assessments – n/a
Page 12 of 38

Page 17

Planning Obligation Summary – n/a 
Scottish Ministers Direction – n/a 
Assessment
It is considered that the proposal complies with Policy P1 of the Local Development Plan because
the development comprises of alterations to a residential property within a residential area. 
The New Development Supplementary Guidance states that alterations and extensions to existing
residential properties should be of an appropriate scale, size and massing which does not
constitute over development, they should reflect the design and materials of the existing house
and the character of the surrounding area, and they should not significantly reduce the amenity of
the neighbouring residents or the surrounding area. 
In order to determine whether the development complies with the above it is necessary to assess
the proposal against the criteria set out in the Council’s Householder Guidance. These are: 
Design & Materials - In terms of design, the rear extension and replacement garage (with studio
above) are considered to be of an acceptable design, reflecting the appearance of the original
dwelling, in accordance with the provisions of Renfrewshire's Householder Guidance. 
The 5 metre projection to the rear is also considered acceptable given the available rear garden
space associated with the dwelling and the detachment of the property. 
Materials to be used have not been fully detailed, however a condition attached to any consent
given can ensure they are reflective of the original dwelling commensurate with policy and
guidance. 
Considering the design of the proposed dormer windows, these should generally be discrete
additions which retain the character of the original roof, not dominating the roof space. External
finishing materials and window detailing should also match the existing roof and windows. 
In this regard, whilst the scale of the proposed dormer window to the rear could be considered
acceptable on balance due to it’s discreet location, the dormer to the front is considered to
adversely dominate the dwelling’s roof, within the conservation area. Despite requesting a
reduction in the scale of this element during the assessment process the applicant has opted to
make no alterations. As such, it is not considered that the application as a whole can be
supported. 
Scale & Positioning - With regard to scale and positioning the projection into the rear garden
would be 5 m in length for the rear extension. Whilst this would marginally exceed the Councils
Householder Guidance, given the available garden space to serve the dwelling, the position of the
property within the plot and its proximity to neighbouring properties this is considered acceptable
on this occasion. 
The positioning of the proposed replacement garage also utilises the most appropriate area of the
applicants garden space to achieve the requirements sought by the proposal. The height of the
proposal is lower than the main dwelling which also reduces its impact on the wider area.   
In terms of the dormer windows the scale of the front proposal, for the reasons stated above, is
Page 13 of 38

Page 18

considered unacceptable. 
Privacy & Overlooking - The presence of boundary screening and the positioning of the proposed
extensions would not give rise to concern in relation to impact on privacy or overlooking of the
neighbouring properties. 
Daylight & Overshadowing - No significant impact is considered likely to result in this instance
given the position of the extension proposed and the layout of the residential development. 
Considering the points made by the objector above which have not been addressed within the
main body of the report, extensions to the dwelling area unlikely to cause such an increase in
noise levels that an accompanying noise assessment would be required in support of the
application. 
Recommendation and reasons for decision      
In light of the above assessment, the proposal is considered to suitably comply with the relevant
policy and guidance of the Adopted Local Development Plan and New Development
Supplementary Guidance, on balance. It is therefore recommended that planning permission be
refused.

RECOMMENDATION
Refuse 
Reason for Decision 
The proposals are contrary to the provisions of Policy P1 'Renfrewshire's Places' and Policy ENV3
'Built Heritage' of both the Adopted (2014) and Proposed (as amended 2021) Local Development
Plans, the Council's Delivering the Places Strategy 'Alterations and Extensions to Existing
Properties' of the Proposed New Development Supplementary Guidance and Renfrewshire
Householder Development Guidance Planning Advice Note 2016, in that the proposed dormer
window to the front would dominate the roof space, impacting on the character of the original roof,
within the conservation area.

Sent: 24 September 2021 12:49
To: DC <dc@renfrewshire.gov.uk>
Subject: Planning applications for extension and erection of replacement garage at 21 Thornly Park Avenue, Paisley 
We respond to letter dated 2/9/21, received by ourselves and direct neighbours 8/9/21. 
Letter states we have 21 days from receipt of same to respond - however, on attempting to do so on web page, the
information stated consultation period had ended!! Today is 24/9/21, therefore well within the time scale allotted
from receipt of letter. 
Our comments are as follows: 
Thornly Park Avenue is within a designated conservation area, as per Historic Scotland site denotes, and whilst
number 21 is not a listed building it clearly remains within the conservation area. 
This application is an over extension of the existing footprint of the building. 
The proposed extension is more than 50% of the existing footprint, and the addition of decking results in another
50% of the extension. Therefore covering 175% of the original footprint. 
The original dwelling consisted of two public rooms and four bedrooms. The proposed development will increase
this to a minimum of three public rooms, with five bedrooms, three of which are planned to be en-suite and each
with a dressing room. 
The proposed dormer construction to front and rear appears to be much more than 50% of the original roof area,
while the current regulations covering conservation areas states that no more than 50% should be allowed . 
The inclusion of a Juliet balcony as part of the rear dormer construction which covers the entire length of the
building (front and rear) will encroach on privacy of surrounding properties. 
The demolition of the existing garage with a replacement garage including a ‘studio’ is a footprint of 42 square
metres with possible accommodation above and as such is much larger than standard double garage at 34 square
metres, and is much further to the rear of said property, again encroaching on privacy of abounding neighbours. 
The much increased accommodation will respectively increase the possibility of noise nuisance to the surrounding
properties, which has already been an issue from the current two public four bedroom dwelling. 
We respectfully request that these comments, submitted within the time permitted from receipt of notification,  are
given full consideration during the preparation of your report on said application. 
Yours faithfully,
Georgine and David Doherty
