Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the site and area
  • The effect of the proposal on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers, with regard to outlook from neighbouring gardens and properties facing the appeal site

What decided it

The proposed dormer's substantial scale, height extending above the ridge, and discordant design would cause unacceptable harm to the character and appearance of the host property and the area, contrary to the Development Plan.
