Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the external appearance of the dwellinghouse

What decided it

The proposal would introduce a jarring and discordant element into a relatively cohesive terrace through its increased height and prominence, causing significant harm to the external appearance of the dwellinghouse and the character of the area, with no public benefits to outweigh the harm to the setting of the nearby conservation area.
