Why it was refused

  1. The Local Planning Authority considers the proposed development to cause significant harm to the visual amenity of both the dwellinghouse and the surrounding area, for the following reasons. - The scale and massing of the proposed two storey side extension will significantly erode the gap to the side of the property, which is an important feature of the spatial character of the streetscene, thus making the proposed extension more visually intrusive. - The size, siting and design of the proposed porch results in a visually dominant and incongruous feature which harmfully detracts from the characteristic design of the application dwelling. As such, the proposal is contrary to the aims and intentions of policies GP5 and BD6 of the UDP Review (2006), policy P10 of the Core Strategy (as amended 2019), Policy HDG1 of the Householder Design Guide (2012) and the guidance contained within section 12 of the Framework.

From the council's decision notice.
