Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area and host dwelling
  • the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of the neighbouring occupiers

What decided it

The scale, mass and protrusion of the porch element would be an unexpected and stark addition that would harm the character and appearance of the area and the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers.
