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 proposed dormer extension would create an overly large, box-like structure that would give the host building an awkward top-heavy appearance and be highly conspicuous and obtrusive from neighbouring rear gardens, materially harming the character and appearance of the host building and local area.
