Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the dwelling
  • the living conditions of the neighbouring occupiers of Wimbourne in terms of privacy

What decided it

The proposed first floor rear dormer would be unduly bulky and disproportionate to the scale of the existing bungalow and would not constitute a high standard of design, causing significant harm to the character of the dwelling contrary to development plan policies.

Plan policies cited: Policy C5(C) of The Plan for Stafford Borough 2011-2031, Policy N1g of The Plan for Stafford Borough 2011-2031, Policy N1h of The Plan for Stafford Borough 2011-2031, Policy N1e of The Plan for Stafford Borough 2011-2031
