Why it was refused

  1. An increased use of render, so that it becomes the dominant and primary facing material to the front of the dwelling, would be at odds with the other properties in the locality that present brick as the primary facing material, and variations such as render sections are limited to feature or accent elements. If the development were varied as proposed, the somewhat discordant design of the development would not be assimilated into the street scene with a sympathetic use and variety of facing material. Overall, the development and a dominant use of facing render, would be harmful to the character and appearance of the area and at odds with local distinctiveness. There would be conflict with policies SS7 and DC1 of the SMDC Local Plan 2020, the terms of the SMDC Design Guide SPD and the NPPF which says that LPAs should ensure that the quality of approved development is not materially diminished between permission and completion as a result of changes being made to the permitted scheme

From the council's decision notice.
