Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host property and area

What decided it

The proposed extensions would not be visually dominant or incongruous and would reinforce the strong built frontage characteristic of the area, thereby complying with Policies 55, 56 and 58 of the Cambridge Local Plan and the Roof Extensions Design Guide.
