Why it was refused

  1. The Local Planning Authority considers that the proposed development would, by reason of its unsympathetic scale and massing, appear unduly dominant within the existing roofline and have a detrimental impact on the character and appearance of the host property and the wider streetscene. As such, the proposal would thereby be contrary to Policy P10 of the Core Strategy, Saved Policies GP5 and BD6 of the UDPR, and guidance contained within the NPPF and Householder Design Guide SPD.

From the council's decision notice.
