Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the host property and the surrounding area, with particular reference to the two storey side extension
- drainage and the management of surface water
What decided it
The significant harmful impact on the character and appearance of the host property and surrounding area caused by the imposing and bulky two storey side extension, combined with insufficient evidence of adequate drainage and surface water management, outweighed the limited housing supply benefit of one additional dwelling.
the adverse impacts of harm to character and appearance and failure to demonstrate adequate drainage management significantly and demonstrably outweighed the benefits of one additional dwelling to housing supply
