Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the host property, the terrace, and the area

What decided it

The proposed hip to gable roof extension combined with the large rear dormer would harm the character and appearance of the terrace and streetscene by creating a top-heavy, domineering appearance inconsistent with the prevailing hipped roof form characteristic of the area.
