Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The proposed chalet design with its lower eaves line, individual dormers and varied roof planes would not be overly prominent or out of keeping with the area, distinguishing it from the previously dismissed appeal for a two-storey conversion.
