Why it was refused

  1. By reasons of its render finish, flat roof, deep upvc fascia and roof overhang, the proposed extension would harmfully clash, be completely at odds to and have an uncomfortable relationship with the character of the existing dwelling within this visually prominent location. The application is therefore contrary to policy DC1 of the Staffordshire Moorlands Local Plan, Design Principles for Development in the Staffordshire Moorlands (SPG), Staffordshire Moorlands Design Guide (SPD) and the National Planning Policy Framework including section 12 'Achieving well designed places.

From the council's decision notice.
