Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area
- Living conditions, with particular regard to external amenity space for occupiers of the dwelling, and outlook from adjoining properties as a result of the rear extension
- Flood risk
What decided it
The front extension's proximity to the road and contrast with neighbouring properties rendered it uncharacteristic and harmful to the street scene, whereas the rear extension's limited visibility and potential for mitigation of flood risk through conditions made it acceptable.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- TDLP Section 1 (2021) Policy SP7TDLP Section 2 (2022) Policy SPL3
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 12Paragraph 14
