Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development upon the character and appearance of the host dwelling and the surrounding area
What decided it
The cumulative impact of the hip-to-gable roof extension, two-storey side extension, and rear dormer would fundamentally alter the established roof form and disrupt the symmetry and visual continuity of the semi-detached pair and surrounding area, causing unacceptable harm to character and appearance contrary to development plan policy.
