Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development upon the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The cumulative effect of the first-floor and rear extensions would substantially erode the visual coherence and balanced appearance of the street scene, conflicting with national policy DP3 requiring development to respond to context and integrate with surroundings.

The benefits of a remodelled and modernised dwelling with additional floorspace were substantially outweighed by the substantial harm to character and appearance and conflict with national decision-making policy DP3
