Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and wider area

What decided it

The excessive scale and massing of the two-storey side extension relative to the host dwelling, combined with insufficient set-back and ridge set-down, and incongruous fenestration, causes demonstrable harm to the character and appearance of the host dwelling and wider street scene that is not outweighed by the presumption in favour of sustainable development.
