Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the extensions on the character and appearance of the area around Appleton Road and Henwick Road
What decided it
The limited height and visibility of the extensions from the public realm, combined with their sympathetic design and materials matching the original house and earlier permitted extension, meant they caused no harm to the character or appearance of the surrounding area.
The benefits of providing necessary ancillary accommodation for a disabled child and the limited visual impact of the extensions outweighed any concerns about their scale and massing in the context of a generous corner plot.
