Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and street scene

What decided it

The two storey side extension would appear as a discordant addition with an awkward visual relationship to the first floor element and would significantly reduce the gap between properties, adversely affecting the uniform spacing and character of the street scene.

The enhanced accommodation benefit to the occupants does not outweigh the harm to character and appearance of the host dwelling and street scene.
