Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area
- the effect on highway and pedestrian safety due to insufficient parking
What decided it
The two-storey side extension built up to the site boundary with a large blank gable elevation would be visually prominent and would significantly erode the visual balance and openness at the junction, resulting in harmful effects on character and appearance contrary to the development plan.
