Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the appeal dwelling and that of the local area

What decided it

The two storey side extension and front extension, when considered together, appear as incongruous, dominating, unduly prominent additions that fail to respect the scale and character of the host building and street scene, resulting in substantial harm to the character and appearance of the appeal dwelling and local area.
