Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

The effect the proposed development would have on the character and appearance of the semi-detached pair of bungalows and the surroundings of Cawood Drive

What decided it

The proposed dormer extensions would be poorly designed, disproportionate to the roof, and create an incongruous and unbalanced appearance when viewed alongside the neighbour's existing flat-roof dormer, contrary to the requirement for development to be sympathetic to local character and maintain the area's prevailing character.

National Planning Policy Framework: Paragraph 135Paragraph 139Paragraph 128
