Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed first-floor rear addition (rear dormer) on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and the Graham Road and Mapledene Conservation Area
What decided it
The first-floor rear dormer's size, design, contrasting materials and awkward visual relationship with the existing roof would cause less than substantial harm to the conservation area that was not outweighed by the limited public benefit of additional accommodation.
