Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host property and surrounding area

What decided it

The front extension would be disproportionately large and dominant, projecting forward into the front garden and appearing cramped within the plot, thereby significantly harming the character and appearance of the host property and surrounding area in conflict with Saved Policies SD1 and EQ2.
