Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the dormer as built is materially different from the dormer granted planning permission (ground c)
  • Whether the dormer as built harms the visual appearance of the building, is obtrusive and overbearing to neighbours, and allows overlooking of their gardens (ground a)

What decided it

The dormer's modern, distinctive design fulfils the ambitions of local plan policy for bold contemporary additions and does not harm the appearance of the building or unduly impact neighbours when a privacy screen condition is imposed.

Plan policies cited: Policy LP1 of the Richmond Local Plan, Policy 28 of the draft local plan
