Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and the surrounding area
What decided it
The proposed retention of the front roof slope would result in a coherent and balanced design that is in keeping with the character and appearance of the host dwelling and surrounding area, and would be more sympathetic to local character than recreating the original roof angle.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy L7 of the Trafford Core Strategy (2012)
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 199
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
