Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether Prior Approval should be given having particular regard to the resulting appearance of the dwelling house

What decided it

The external appearance of the enlarged dwelling would harm the character and appearance of the area by presenting an exposed, conspicuous building with imposing blank elevations that would severely detract from its overall appearance and conflict with NPPF guidance on well-designed places.
