Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
- the living conditions of the occupiers of 36 Lombard Street, with regard to outlook
What decided it
The proposal's incongruous gable roof design and large dormer extension would be a discordant feature that harms the harmonious character of the street and creates an oppressive enclosing effect on neighbouring outlook, conflicting with design policies and NPPF guidance on well-designed places.
