Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
  • Whether the proposed development would provide appropriate living conditions for existing and future occupants, with particular regard to the internal floor area
  • The effect of the proposed development on highway safety with particular regard to parking

What decided it

The proposed two-storey extension would be unduly prominent and visually detrimental to the character and appearance of the prominent end-of-terrace property and the surrounding street scene, conflicting with design policies that require development to respond to local area context.

Plan policies cited: Policy PG3, Policy DM11, Policy UD1, Policy DM2, Policy TP27, Policy DM14, Policy PG3, Policy TP38, Policy TP44
