Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposed extensions would amount to inappropriate development in the Green Belt
- The effect of the proposed extensions on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and the Monken Hadley Conservation Area
- The effect of the proposed single storey rear extension on the living conditions of the occupiers at 'Chalkidons' with respect to light, overshadowing and outlook
What decided it
The proposed extensions, whilst exceeding the SPD's 25% volume guideline by 2%, would remain clearly subordinate to the original dwelling and would not amount to disproportionate additions, combined with their sympathetic design and preservation of the conservation area character and neighbouring amenity.
