Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

The effect of the change to the dormer windows on the character and appearance of the local area
Whether or not the plant room can be considered as part of a section 73 application
If this is the case, would it result in an adverse impact on the living conditions of local residents by way of noise and disturbance

What decided it

The proposed sloping roof dormers would appear out of proportion with the host dwelling as bulky top-heavy additions that would dominate the roof and create a visually intrusive form of development harmful to the character and appearance of the local area.
