Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
What decided it
The proposed extension would not be subordinate in size and massing to the existing dwelling and would therefore harm the character and appearance of the area, contrary to the development plan policies requiring high quality design and subordinate extensions.
