Why it was refused

  1. The Local Planning Authority consider that the size, scale, siting and design of the hip-to- gable extension, rear dormer and two storey side extension would fail to respect the hipped roof character of the application dwelling, would unbalance the semi-detached pair and would also fail to protect characteristic streetscene gaps. The Local Planning Authority further consider that the proposed render finish would result in a dwelling that stood in stark to the brick finish of the wider area, and which harmed the appearance of the application property and wider streetscene. As such application would cause harm to the architectural and spatial character of the area, contrary to Core Strategy Review (2019) policy P10, saved Unitary Development Plan Review (2006) policies GP5 and BD6, Householder Design Guide policy HDG1, and Section 12 of Framework.

From the council's decision notice.
