Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development upon the character and appearance of the dwelling and its surroundings

What decided it

The proposed development would not result in harm to character and appearance, would exhibit high-quality design, and would improve the visual integration of the existing flat-roofed extension with the host building and the street scene.

The benefits of providing additional living accommodation and improving the character and appearance of the dwelling and locality outweighed any concerns about minor departures from SPD guidelines, with privacy concerns adequately addressed by condition.

Plan policies cited: Policy LP26, Policy LP30
