Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
What decided it
The shed's substantial size and full-width span would significantly harm the character and appearance of the area by creating an imposing, overbearing structure that upsets the consistent garden layout of the terrace and dominates neighbouring properties' outlook.
The largely private benefits arising for the appellant would not outweigh the public harm to the character and appearance of the area.
