Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the rear dormer extension on the character and appearance of the host building and the surrounding area
- The effect of the rear dormer extension on the living conditions of occupiers of 1 Boy Lane, with particular regard to light, outlook and privacy
What decided it
The rear dormer extension's considerable scale, unsympathetic materials, and close proximity to the neighbouring boundary cause unacceptable harm to both the character and appearance of the area and the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers, conflicting with development plan policies DS1, DS3 and DS5.
Framework references: 131
Plan policies cited: Policy DS1, Policy DS3, Policy DS5
