Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and the surrounding area, with particular reference to the two storey side extension

What decided it

The proposed two storey side extension would be materially harmful to the character and appearance of the host dwelling and surrounding area by being substantially wider than design guidance recommends, appearing overly dominant and discordant in a prominent location.
