Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the local area
  • The living conditions of the proposed occupants with regards to internal space
  • The living conditions of the adjacent occupants with regards to outlook and light levels
  • Whether or not it would lead to pedestrian and highway safety concerns

What decided it

The combination of harm to character and appearance from the oversized dormer, inadequate internal space standards for the upper flat, and insufficient off-street parking leading to highway safety concerns outweighed the modest benefits of additional housing provision.
