Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposal on the street scene

What decided it

The serious harm to the street scene and appearance of the dwelling caused by the visual incongruity of the raised roof and dormer with the character of the terrace outweighed any internal functional benefits.

The harm to the street scene and conflict with the development plan and NPPF design guidance outweighed the internal functional need for headroom, with little weight given to the permitted development argument.

What the Inspector cited

Development plan policies
Saved Policy DC2(1) of the Erewash Borough Local Plan (March 2014)
