Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development upon the character and appearance of the host dwelling and the area, with due regard to the Becontree Estate, a non-designated heritage asset

What decided it

The two-storey side extension would not appear subordinate to the host dwelling and would result in a marked reduction in visual openness of the corner plot, causing material harm to the character of the street scene and the planned form of the Becontree Estate as a non-designated heritage asset.
