Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the building is a detached building such that it would benefit from permitted development rights afforded under Schedule 2, Part 20, Class AA of the GPDO
  • If so, whether prior approval should be granted having regard to the external appearance of the dwellinghouse, including the design and architectural features

What decided it

The proposed two-storey extension would create unacceptable harm to the external appearance and character of the building and its immediate surrounding area by introducing a visually dominant six-storey development into an area of predominantly three and four-storey buildings.
