Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and surrounding area, particularly regarding the Gilderdale Way street scene

What decided it

The increased sense of scale and mass created by the heightened roof and front elevation changes would result in an overly dominant, three-storey appearance that would be incongruous and harmful to the character and appearance of the host dwelling and street scene.
