The rear extension's material deviation from approved details and its substantial height and unusual roof form cause demonstrable harm to character and appearance and to the living conditions of neighbouring occupants, particularly No 153, contrary to development plan policies.
Plan policies cited: Policy D3 of the London Plan (2021), Policy CS1 of the Harrow Core Strategy (2012), Policy DM1 of Harrow Development Management Policies Local Plan (2013)
