Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development, with particular regard to the first floor side and side dormer extensions on the character and appearance of the existing building and the local area
  • The effect of the proposal, with particular regard to the single storey rear extension, on the living conditions of residents of neighbouring properties, with particular regard to loss of outlook and loss of light

What decided it

The combined effect of the first floor side extension with the side dormer would create a top-heavy roof form that detracts from character and appearance, and the single storey rear extension would materially harm the living conditions of neighbouring residents through loss of outlook.
