Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed rear extension on the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The excessive depth and scale of the proposed rear extension would result in an overdominance of built form within the plot that is disproportionate to the host property and fails to respect the low-density character of the Residential Area of Special Character, contrary to development plan policies.

Plan policies cited: Policy DES1, Policy DES3
