Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The impact of the proposal upon the character and appearance of the host dwelling and the surrounding area

What decided it

The lack of uniform character or appearance in the locality, combined with the subordinate nature of the proposed extension to the original long, linear form of the dwelling, means the proposal would not result in harmful impact on character and appearance.
