Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the local area

What decided it

The proposed dwelling would appear as a visually prominent, discordant and conspicuous feature that would detrimentally harm the character and appearance of the local area by eroding spatial relief and undermining the symmetry of the corner plot framing.

The limited benefits of providing an additional dwelling in a well-served location were outweighed by the significant harm to the character and appearance of the local area.
