Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the host property and locality

What decided it

The proposal would create an incongruous, overly cumbersome extension lacking subservience to the host property's proportions and design, conflicting with Policy D1 of the Fareham Local Plan 2037 which requires development of high design quality appropriate to the character of the locality.
