Why it was refused
- The proposed development, by virtue of its design, scale and massing, would result in a disproportionate and visually dominant addition that fails to respect the simple form and character of the host dwelling. The introduction of multiple gables and an incongruous, overly complex roofscape would create a bulky and unbalanced form that appears visually discordant and poorly integrated with the existing property. As a result, the development is considered to harm the character and appearance of the host dwelling. The proposal is therefore contrary to SWDPR 05: Design and Sustainable Construction, and SWDPR 28: Design of the South Worcestershire Development Plan Review.
From the council's decision notice.
