Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host building and its surroundings
  • The effect of the proposed development on the residential amenities of neighbours (whether unacceptable harm would be caused by overbearing appearance, loss of light, overshadowing or intrusion on privacy)

What decided it

The harm to the character and appearance of the host building and surroundings, caused by the awkward design of flat roof elements, encroachment on neighbouring space, and loss of front garden to hardstanding, outweighed the benefits of the extension.
