Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect varying the condition, and the addition of the different window designs, would have on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and surrounding area

What decided it

The substantially enlarged glazed openings, particularly the full-height window arrangements in the front-facing gables, would dominate the principal elevations and appear disproportionate and uncharacteristic to the host dwelling, conflicting with development plan policies on character and appearance.
