Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the host building and surrounding area

What decided it

The development causes material harm to the character and appearance of the host dwelling, site and wider area through its excessive scale, height, massing and use of contrasting materials, which is not outweighed by any material considerations of sufficient weight.

The benefits of security and surveillance of the fishponds were outweighed by the material harm to character and appearance of the host dwelling and surrounding area.
