Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area
What decided it
The development's significantly greater scale compared to other porches on the terrace, combined with incongruous materials and the site's prominence, results in very significant harm to character and appearance that outweighs other considerations including the appellant's accessibility arguments.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy EM10 of the Basingstoke and Deane Local Plan 2016Design and Sustainability Supplementary Planning Document 2018Policy LBE1 of the Overton Neighbourhood Development Plan 2016
