Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposals on the character and appearance of the host building and its surroundings
  • Parking provision

What decided it

The first floor extension element would be entirely at odds with the simple character and solid-to-void ratio of the townhouses and would cause unacceptable harm to character and appearance, while the loss of garage parking would leave inadequate provision in a constrained layout with potential for cumulative harm if a precedent were set.
