Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the dwelling and the surrounding area
- the living conditions of nearby occupiers, with particular reference to outlook
What decided it
The proposed roof alterations and dormer extensions would create an unacceptably bulky and incongruous appearance that fails to respect the local character and prevailing pattern of development along Matlock Crescent.
