What decided it
The substantial size and bulk of the dormer window, which dominates and significantly erodes the roof profile of the property and disrupts the relatively unaltered roofscape, conflicts with development plan policies requiring development to enrich character and quality of places and respond to local context.
Plan policies cited: Policy CP6 of the Bath and North East Somerset Core Strategy, Policy D1 of the Bath and North East Somerset Placemaking Plan, Policy D2 of the Bath and North East Somerset Placemaking Plan, Policy D5 of the Bath and North East Somerset Local Plan Partial Update, Policy D3 of the Bath and North East Somerset Placemaking Plan, Policy B4 of the Bath and North East Somerset Core Strategy, Policy HE1 of the Bath and North East Somerset Placemaking Plan
