Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the condition is reasonable and necessary in relation to the size and siting of the further alterations in order to protect the character and appearance of the surrounding area

What decided it

The increased roof pitch and massing at second floor level would create a dominant and incongruous form of development that would be out of keeping with the prevailing character and roofscape, making the condition reasonable and necessary to protect the area's character and appearance.

Plan policies cited: Policy LP1, Policy LP3, Policy C2, Policy C3, Design Quality SPD (2006), Small and Medium Housing Sites SPD (2006)
