Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal upon the character and appearance of the existing dwelling, as well as the surrounding locality, with special regard to the Sheen Common Drive Conservation Area
What decided it
The disproportionate bulk, massing and depth of the proposed extension would not be subservient or proportionate to the existing dwelling and would cause less than substantial harm to the conservation area that is not outweighed by the identified public benefits.
The less than substantial harm to the conservation area was not outweighed by the public benefits of providing optimal viable use and short-term employment opportunities.
