Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the appeal proposal upon the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The two-storey front extension would not be subservient in form, would dominate the host dwelling, disrupt the visual rhythm of the street, and constitute an incongruous and unsympathetic addition harmful to the character and appearance of the area, conflicting with SPD Principles DES56, DES58, DES59, DES61 and Policy BE2.

Framework references: 135

Plan policies cited: Policy BE2, Principle DES56, Principle DES58, Principle DES59, Principle DES61
