Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed rear dormer on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and surrounding setting
- The effect of the proposed single-storey rear extension on the living conditions of neighbours, with regards outlook
What decided it
The proposed dormer would cause significant harm to the character and appearance of the host dwelling and surrounding setting by dominating the roof plane, and the rear extension would cause particular harm to the living conditions of No.2 Essex Way through visual intrusion and overbearing impact.
