Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether or not the proposal would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt
  • The effect on the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The proposed dormer windows would disrupt the roof plane and increase the visual prominence of the building to the detriment of its relationship with the host property and countryside setting, thereby failing to maintain the character and appearance of the area in conflict with the Development Plan.
