Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the single storey rear extension and dormer on the character and appearance of the host property and its surroundings
  • the effect of the single storey extension and outbuilding on neighbouring living conditions

What decided it

The Inspector's site visit assessment that the built forms, viewed in context of actual site conditions and neighbouring development, caused no material harm to character, appearance or neighbouring living conditions, and that the Council had applied SPD guidance too strictly rather than as intended.
