Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal upon the character and appearance of the surrounding area
What decided it
The varied character of the surrounding area, with detached dwellings of different designs and scales, and the presence of other substantially extended properties with contemporary elements, meant that the proposed extensions would not cause harm to the character and appearance of the area despite not being subservient to the original dwelling.
