Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host property and the immediate area, with particular regard to its layout, scale and design
- the living conditions of the neighbouring occupiers, with particular regard to privacy, sunlight, daylight and outlook
What decided it
The proposed extension's excessive scale, unsympathetic roof design, and lack of subordination to the host property would cause unacceptable harm to character and appearance, and inadequate information was provided to demonstrate satisfactory daylight and sunlight for neighbouring occupiers.
