Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether prior approval should be granted for the external appearance of the dwellinghouse
What decided it
The proposed extension would unacceptably change the external appearance of the dwelling by creating uncharacteristic additional height and massing that would appear detrimentally taller and out of scale with adjoining houses, thereby failing to satisfy the broad aims of the NPPF in relation to character and appearance.
