Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and the street scene.

What decided it

The proposed side extension would respect the character and appearance of the host dwelling and street scene by reflecting existing roof and building lines, maintaining rhythm of gaps between buildings, and being readily assimilated into the street scene, thereby complying with design policies despite minor deviation from SPD guidance on setback.
