Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The proposed dwelling would be set well back from the road boundaries on a spacious plot with dense landscaping, limiting its visual impact despite greater height, and its classical Queen Anne style design with red brick and clay tiles would fit harmoniously with the mock historic character of the area.
