Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
- whether the proposed development provides sufficient on-site parking to cater for the two dwellings
- whether the proposed development would provide sufficient outdoor amenity space for the future occupants of the proposed dwellings
What decided it
The proposal fails to comply with the development plan on two grounds: the bulky and incongruous box dormer would be detrimental to character and appearance contrary to policy DSC1, and the provision of only two parking spaces is insufficient under policy TM5.
Plan policies cited: Policy DSC1, Policy TM5, Policy EQ1, Appendix B
