Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area, with specific regard to the siting, scale and form of the first and second-floor rear extension
What decided it
The existence of comparable upper-floor rear extensions nearby that are of similar width, depth and massing, combined with the limited public visibility and use of matching materials, demonstrated that the proposed extension would not cause harm to character and appearance despite exceeding the SPD's normal guidance thresholds.
