Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the surrounding area
- the effect of the proposal on the living conditions for the occupants of No 1A the Drive
What decided it
The proposed increase in height of the glazed enclosure would create a dominant and imposing structure that would cause demonstrable harm to the character and appearance of the surrounding area, contrary to development plan policies requiring high standards of design.
Plan policies cited: Core Policy 8, Policy H15, Policy EN1, Policy EN2
