Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed extension on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and wider area
  • The effect of the proposed extension on the living conditions of the occupiers of No.15 Torra Barn Close, with regard to outlook

What decided it

The careful design of the extension, particularly the offset first floor element and angled rear corner, ensured it remained subordinate to the original dwelling and did not cause harm to character, appearance or neighbouring living conditions.
