A club near Scarborough's plan to build a side extension to its existing pavilion has been given the green light.
Wykeham Cricket Club has submitted plans to North Yorkshire Council to construct an 8m long extension to its pavilion has received the go-ahead from council planners.
According to its website, the club caters to “all members of the community and competes in local senior Saturday leagues, evening league, women’s league, and junior leagues as well as a thriving off-field calendar”.
The new side extension to the pavilion at the cricket ground will have an eaves height of 2.42 metres, a ridge height of 4.6 metres, a width of 5.3 metres and a length of 8.8 metres.
No objections to the plan were made by North Yorkshire Police or the Highway Authority.
The pavilion is a “modest, functional timber building positioned within the established cricket ground and the extension has been designed to integrate with the scale, form and materials of the existing pavilion,” planners said.
They added:
“The extension adopts a pitched roof form reflecting the established roof profile of the host building and remains proportionate in scale.”
A planning report prepared by officers notes that the pavilion is located within the cricket ground and benefits from “separation from nearby residential properties”.
It states that the extension “does not materially increase the scale or operational intensity of the established recreational use but instead provides improved internal facilities”.
Officers added:
“The development is not considered to have an unacceptable negative impact upon the amenity of existing and future use of the site.
“It is considered that the level of amenity in this area would be maintained to an acceptable standard.”
The scheme was approved, subject to conditions, by North Yorkshire Council.
