Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect the proposed roof and side extensions and front dormer would have on the character and appearance of No 61A Holly Street itself, the terrace of two-storey houses of which it forms part, and the wider street scene
What decided it
The proposed development's compliance with the development plan taken as a whole, particularly policies supporting innovative design, housing density optimisation, and site capacity in sustainable locations, substantially outweighs its departure from strict design guidance regarding front dormers.
