Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and the street scene.

What decided it

The shallow step back of the two storey side extension would create a discordant vertical element that conflicts with the simple horizontal architectural emphasis and symmetry of the host dwelling and the character of the street scene.
