- Jones R
Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the alleged development results in unacceptable harm to the character and appearance of the area and/or the living conditions of neighbouring residents
- If so, whether unacceptable harm(s) can be avoided by an amended scheme, and whether such a scheme can be appropriately secured
What decided it
The harm to character and appearance arising from the misaligned roof form and contrasting porch could be satisfactorily resolved by an amended scheme requiring the dwelling to match the adjoining property's roof and porch design, making full demolition and reconstruction disproportionate.
