Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal upon the character and appearance of the host property and the surrounding street scene

What decided it

The proposal would create an incongruous dwelling that is conspicuously larger and higher than its neighbours, with a steeper pitch appearing overly dominant and disproportionate, thereby significantly harming the character and appearance of the host property and street scene.

What the Inspector cited

Development plan policies
Policy HSG11
National Planning Policy Framework
Paragraph 126Paragraph 130

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.
