Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
- the living conditions of the occupiers of 9 and 13 Hermitage Road with particular regard to outlook and privacy
What decided it
The proposed rear dormer's use of grey/anthracite zinc, contemporary glazing and enclosed balcony would prevent integration with the existing roofscape and create unacceptable overlooking of No. 13's rear garden, conflicting with design and amenity policies.
