Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposal upon the character and appearance of the street scene
What decided it
The two-storey side extension would fill the existing gap between the property and its neighbour, making the dwelling appear cramped within its setting and detracting from the rhythm and harmony of the street scene in conflict with the Design Guide and development plan policy.
Plan policies cited: Policy CS41 of the Bournemouth Local Plan: Core Strategy 2012, Policy BAP1 of the Boscombe & Pokesdown Neighbourhood Plan
