Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether prior approval should be granted having regard to the external appearance of the building
What decided it
The proposal would cause unacceptable harm to the external appearance of the building by creating an unduly dominant central section, thereby failing to meet the conditions for prior approval under paragraph A.2 of the GPDO.
