Why it was refused
- The proposed development by reason of its siting, design, scale and bulk would result in overly dominate and obtrusive additions that fail to achieve a high standard of design to the detriment of the character and appearance of the surrounding residential area and the main dwellinghouse. The proposal is contrary to Policies DES4 and HOU11 of the East Herts District Plan 2018 and the aims and objectives of the National Planning Policy Framework.
From the council's decision notice.
