Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

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

What decided it

The proposed front dormer would restore uniformity and symmetry to the semi-detached pair by matching the existing dormer at no. 54, would not appear oversized or dominant in context, and would respect the distinctive local character of The Grove with its variety of roof additions.
