Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the local area

What decided it

The proposed gable features and roof raising would harmonise with existing neighbouring properties and rationalise the existing disjointed roofline, resulting in development that would not harm the character and appearance of the local area or the open countryside beyond.
