Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the dwelling and surrounding area
  • the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the neighbouring occupants at Hillcrest

What decided it

The proposed crown roof would significantly alter the architectural character of the existing dwelling and appear incongruous and visually intrusive, causing harm to the character and appearance of the property and surrounding area that could not be outweighed by the neutral impact on neighbouring living conditions.
