Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the old look Siberian larch planks and smooth concrete grey roof tiles on the character and appearance of the surrounding area

What decided it

The use of old look Siberian larch planks on the forward projecting garage and two-storey side extension would occupy a large proportion of the front elevation and be highly visible from the public realm, making them incongruous with the prevailing character and appearance of Broadlawn.
