Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the host property and the street scene
  • whether the proposal would provide acceptable living conditions for future occupiers, with particular regard to private amenity space
  • whether the proposal would provide acceptable cycle storage

What decided it

The proposal would have an unacceptable effect on the character and appearance of the host property and street scene due to the overly dominant and incongruous roof additions being highly conspicuous in views along Cotford Road.
