Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed rear dormer extension on the character and appearance of the host property, the terrace, and the area, with particular regard to its scale, design, and external materials

What decided it

The fallback position of the already-approved 'L' shaped dormer extension, combined with the Inspector's assessment that the additional projection of the appeal proposal would not materially harm character and appearance and could be adequately controlled through a materials condition, outweighed the Council's concerns.
