Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the appeal scheme on the character and appearance of the area
  • The effect of the appeal scheme on the living conditions of neighbouring occupants

What decided it

The deviations from approved plans in the construction of both extensions caused unacceptable harm to character and appearance and neighbouring living conditions, but these harms could be remedied by lesser steps than complete removal, justifying variation of the enforcement notice.
