Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal upon the character and appearance of the host dwelling and wider street scene

What decided it

The size, siting, excessive forward projection, and incongruous flat roof form of the extension would make it a discordant addition that would be harmful to the character and appearance of the dwelling and street scene, conflicting with Policies CS21 and CS24 of the Woking Core Strategy.
