Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development upon the character and appearance of the surrounding area

What decided it

The proposed development, being of appropriate scale and design for its location with limited height increases that would not appear incongruous within the street scene and would largely be concealed from public viewpoints, would not have a harmful effect on the character and appearance of the area and therefore complies with Policy DSC1.
