Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the street scene and host property
- Living conditions of the neighbouring occupiers at 48 Stanstead Road with particular regard to outlook
What decided it
The proposed ridge raise and rear dormer would visually disrupt the staggered roofline that is a characteristic feature of the terrace, causing unacceptable harm to the character and appearance of the street scene and host property.
