Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the host building and the wider area
  • The effect of the development on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers with particular regard to outlook

What decided it

The excessive scale, poor-quality materials and overbearing design of the extension caused unacceptable harm to both the character and appearance of the area and the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers.
