Why it was refused

  1. The proposed single and two-storey rear extensions and main roof enlargements, by reason of their cumulative scale, bulk, mass and complex juxtaposition and location on the existing dwelling, would be considered over-dominant and out-of-keeping with the simple design, form and character of the existing dwelling. The proposal would therefore be harmful to the character and appearance of the existing dwelling. This would be contrary to the aims of the NPPF, Policy EQ11 of the Core Strategy and the South Staffordshire Design Guidance SPD, which, fundamentally, seek to ensure that all extensions are 'subservient to the main building' and 'fit in with the character and form of the existing building'.

From the council's decision notice.
