Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect on the character and appearance of the appeal dwelling, the terrace of which it forms part and the character of the Plumstead Common Conservation Area

What decided it

The proposed dormer extension, despite not fully meeting design guidance distances, would appear as a subservient addition that integrates with the existing roofscape and character of the terrace and conservation area, thereby preserving its significance.
