Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
What decided it
The proposed development would have a significant adverse visual impact on the character and appearance of the area by creating a discordant and incongruous addition that would unbalance the symmetrical appearance of the paired buildings and interrupt the pattern of roof forms in the street scene.
The adverse impacts of granting planning permission would significantly and demonstrably outweigh the benefits when assessed against the policies contained within the development plan, with no material considerations indicating a decision otherwise than in accordance with the development plan.
