Why it was refused

  1. The proposed development by virtue of its siting, design, scale and height would compete with the proportions of the existing dwelling and form a prominent addition within the street scene. It would have an unacceptable visual impact upon the character of the host dwelling, reduce the spatial characteristics of the streetscene and result in a development which would be harmful to the visual character of the street scene, contrary Policy EQ6 of he High Peak Loal Plan 2016, the Design Guide SPD, Residential Design Guide 2005 and the National Planning Policy Framework.

From the council's decision notice.
