Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the external appearance of the building

What decided it

The external appearance of the proposed extension would assimilate appropriately with the host building and its environment, appearing as a positive change rather than an incongruous addition, and would not be visually harmful to the street scene due to the building's setback, the screening trees, and the contrast being acceptable in the context of the area's mixed design character.

What the Inspector cited
