Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the development on the character and appearance of the host building and local area
- whether resultant car parking space provision serving the property would be adequate
What decided it
The proposed extension's excessive bulk and mass would harm the uniform character and appearance of the street-scene, and the inadequate parking provision would exacerbate on-street parking pressure on a narrow road, restricting vehicle manoeuvrability.
The social benefits of providing ancillary accommodation for an elderly family member were outweighed by the substantial harm to character and appearance and the functional harm to highway use arising from inadequate parking provision.
