Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The development, comprising the stone effect boundary treatment with concrete posts and the white rendered side extension with perspex canopy, is incongruous, over-dominant and out of keeping with the character and appearance of the surrounding area of red brick dwellings with lower boundary treatments.
