Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The building's scale, siting, finish and prominence in the front garden cause harm to the character and appearance of the area that is not outweighed by the appellant's amenity or privacy considerations.

The appellant's desire to provide a hot tub, privacy and traffic noise screening in the front garden does not outweigh the harm to the character and appearance of the area caused by the unauthorised building's scale, siting and finish.
