- The effect of the proposed roof extension on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and the terrace which it sits within
What decided it
The proposed roof extension would not result in material harm to the character and appearance of the host dwelling or the terrace, as similar alterations exist at neighbouring properties and the new elements would be largely imperceptible in the streetscape.
