Why it was refused

  1. The rear dormer by virtue of its size and scale is unduly prominent, visually incongruous and unsympathetic to the existing dwelling. This results in a detrimental visual impact on the character and appearance of the original dwelling and the street scene. The proposal thereby fails to comply with the design principles set out in the NPPF, Policy EQ6 of the High Peak Local Plan 2016, the High Peak Residential Design Guide SPD (2005) and Design Guide SPD (2018).

From the council's decision notice.
