Why it was refused
- The siting, design and cramped appearance of the front dormer would be harmful to the appearance of the property and to the character of the wider streetscene. It would not enhance local distinctiveness and is therefore contrary to policy 15 of the Adur Local Plan, Supplementary Planning Guidance in Development Management Standard No.2 'Extensions and Alterations to Dwellings and the National Planning Policy Framework (December 2024).
From the council's decision notice.
