Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the rear dormer extension on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and the area, and upon the living conditions of occupiers of nearby residential properties

What decided it

The size and massing of the dormer results in significant harm to the character and appearance of the host property and wider area that cannot be adequately mitigated by conditions, and the development conflicts with the development plan.
