minor amendments to a previously approved planning permission. The first proposed change is to add a further small window to the side (North) elevation to allow more light to penetrate into the interior space.

Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the surrounding area, with particular regard to the cladding of the dormer window in timber

What decided it

The proposed timber cladding on the dormer would appear as an incongruous and visually intrusive addition that fails to respect the character and appearance of the surrounding area, contrary to the development plan.
