Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the host property, the semi-detached pair and the street scene
- The effect on the living conditions of adjoining occupiers with particular reference to outlook
What decided it
The dormer, although prominent and not strictly compliant with SPD guidance, harmonises satisfactorily with the existing rendered extensions and does not materially harm character, appearance or neighbouring amenity, particularly given the fallback position of an issued Certificate of Lawfulness for a similar scheme.

- Policy 7Policy 26
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
