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
- the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring dwellings in relation to outlook, daylight and noise and the living conditions of occupiers of the host dwelling in relation to garden space
What decided it
The bulky and incongruous design of the first floor extension and dormer, combined with the dominant outbuilding, would harm character and appearance and significantly reduce daylight and outlook for neighbouring occupiers in breach of development plan policies.
