Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed roof extension on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and the street scene of Sinfin Avenue and Breydon Close

What decided it

The proposed roof extension would stand out as an incongruous and anomalous alteration that would materially detract from the pleasing consistency of roof form and roof height in the area, conflicting with local plan policies requiring housing extensions to be of high quality design that make a positive contribution to local character.

Plan policies cited: Policy H16 of the City of Derby Local Plan Review, 2006, Policy CP3 of the Derby City Local Plan – Part 1: Core Strategy, 2017, Policy CP4 of the Derby City Local Plan – Part 1: Core Strategy, 2017
