Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the two storey extensions on the character and appearance of the area
  • Highway safety with specific regard to parking provision

What decided it

The proposal's subordinate design and the availability of on-street parking in the unrestricted cul-de-sac meant it would not cause harm to character and appearance or highway safety, allowing it to comply with the development plan.
