Why it was refused

  1. The proposed roof extensions by reason of its size, scale, bulk, and design, would fail to harmonise with the size and architectural composition of the original dwelling and would be detrimental to the character, appearance and visual amenities of the street scene and the surrounding area. Therefore the proposal would be contrary to Policy BE1 of the Hillingdon Local Plan: Part One - Strategic Policies (November 2012) and Policies DMHB 11, DMHB 12 and DMHD

From the council's decision notice.
