Why it was refused

  1. The proposed side to rear extension, boundary treatment and rooflights, by reason of their design, size, and siting, would appear incongruous and overly prominent within the front and side elevation. Consequently, the proposal would have an unacceptably adverse impact on the character and appearance of the dwelling, the surrounding locality, and the Conservation Area. The proposal is therefore contrary to Policies DMP1 and BHC1 of the Brent Local Plan.

From the council's decision notice.
