Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the first floor side extension on the living conditions of the occupiers of No 59 Dunstable Road, with regard to outlook and natural light
  • The effect of the flat-roofed element of the first floor side extension on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and the surrounding area

What decided it

The flat-roofed element combined with the hipped roof element would create a complex and contrived roof profile that would be incongruous and incoherent in the context of the simpler pitched roof designs in the immediate street scene.
