Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The impact of the proposal upon the character and appearance of the terraced house and neighbouring properties as well as the New Town and Glisson Road Conservation Area
What decided it
The front and rear dormers would cumulatively dominate the host dwelling at roof level and be entirely contrary to the consistent, unaltered roofscape characteristic of the immediate vicinity within the conservation area, resulting in less than substantial harm to the designated heritage asset that is not outweighed by any public benefits.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy 58Policy 61
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 215
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
