Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host property and the area

What decided it

The proposed extension would be over 3 metres in width and more than half the width of the existing dwelling, resulting in a visually oppressive and incongruous addition that would unacceptably erode the uniform architectural character of Hylton Avenue.
