Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed side, hipped roof dormer on the character and appearance of the dwelling and surrounding area.

What decided it

The proposed side dormer would be subservient to the host building, similar to existing dormers in the area, and would not be prominent in the street scene, therefore not adversely affecting the character and appearance of the dwelling and surrounding area.
