Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host property and the street scene
What decided it
The proposed side extension would be visually harmful to the character and appearance of the host property and street scene due to its height exceeding the existing eaves, bulky design, and uncharacteristic roof form that conflicts with the established hipped roof character of the street.
