Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed side extension on the character and appearance of the existing property and the surrounding area

What decided it

The bulk, massing, and prominence of the proposed extensions, combined with the removal of the original end parapet wall, would make them appear disproportionate and non-subordinate to the original dwelling, thereby adversely affecting the character and appearance of the property and surrounding area contrary to Policy 53 of LP1.
