Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed loft conversion upon the character and appearance of the appeal property and wider area
What decided it
The proposed loft conversion comprising linked side and rear dormers would appear unsympathetic and incongruous, remaining top-heavy and dominant with little respect for the intended hipped roof form and the architectural composition of the terrace, thereby conflicting with Policy DMD13 and design quality policies.
