Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the raising and levelling of the garden to allow for the erection of a garage/car port, on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and the area

What decided it

The substantial mass and bulk of the proposed garage/car port structure, which would exceed the width of the host dwelling and appear oppressive and dominant in the semi-rural context, would unacceptably harm the character and appearance of the host dwelling and the area in conflict with development plan policies.

Plan policies cited: Policy CS1, Policy PSP1, Policy PSP38
