Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the appeal site and surrounding area

What decided it

The proposed side extension would cause visual coalescence and considerable erosion of the sense of space between dwellings, with a roof design incongruous to the traditional hipped roofs of the area, thereby harming the character and appearance of the appeal site and surrounding area.
