Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host building and the local area

What decided it

The cumulative visual impact of the two-storey rear extension combined with the large dormer and ground floor extension would create an overwhelming mass that unduly compromises the character of the host dwelling and causes significant adverse impact on the visual character of the local area, in conflict with development plan policies and the Council's Residential Design Guide.

Plan policies cited: Policy D3.D of The London Plan, Core Policy CS1.B of the Harrow Core Strategy, Policy DM 1 of the Harrow Development Management Policies Document
