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 hip to gable extension would harm the character and appearance of the streetscene by appearing overly dominant and unbalancing the road junction, contrary to the prevailing hipped roof form of the area.
