Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect on the character and appearance of the site and area
What decided it
The proposed extension would be overly prominent and incongruous in design, with an inappropriate roof form and window proportions that would unacceptably harm the character and appearance of the host dwelling and the uniform terraced character of the area.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy DH1
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 12
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
