Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed rear dormer and extension to rear outrigger upon the character and appearance of the host building and surrounding area
What decided it
The proposed rear dormer and extension would cause harm to the character and appearance of the host building and surrounding area by appearing as bulky, disproportionately large, and excessively prominent additions at odds with the terrace's consistent roofscape.
The scheme would provide improvements to the local housing stock, but any associated benefits attract limited weight insufficient to outweigh the harm to character and appearance.
