Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and surrounding area
What decided it
The outbuilding's location on the edge of the appeal site, obscured from public view by surrounding built form and considerable distance from public vantage points, meant the two-storey extension would not adversely affect the character and appearance of the host property or surrounding area.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy EM10 of the Basingstoke and Deane Local Plan 2011-2029
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.
