Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the host property and the surrounding area
What decided it
The bulky width of the extension and its unsympathetic design at a prominent corner location would not appear subordinate, and the disruption to the existing bay window and hipped roof detail would significantly harm the character and appearance of the property and street scene.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy BDP19
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
