Why it was refused

  1. The Local Planning Authority considers that the proposed front dormer windows would result in visually dominant and incongruous features that would fail to respect the character and appearance of the host dwelling and, given their prominent location, would therefore cause harm to the visual amenity of the wider street scene. As such this element of the application is contrary to policy HDG1 of the Householder Design Guide (and the guidance contained within it), to policy P10 of the Core Strategy, to policies GP5 and BD6 of Leeds Unitary Development Plan (Review) 2006, to the aims and intentions of the Rawdon Neighbourhood Development Plan, and to the policy set out in the National Planning Policy Framework.

From the council's decision notice.
