Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the host dwelling, the terrace and the area

What decided it

The building's very limited visibility from public areas and significant separation from the host dwelling meant the modest increase in height from the pitched roof would not harm character and appearance.
