Why it was refused

  1. By reason of its disproportionately large footprint, two-storey height, excessive depth and width, flat roof and high eaves levels, the proposed extension is unacceptable in its design and relationship with the existing dwelling. The extension would be visually dominating, would not have a secondary/subordinate relationship and would not sit comfortably with the existing dwelling, rather it unacceptably clashes in both design and scale which neither compliments nor enhances the appearance of the existing dwelling or surrounding residential area. The proposed development 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.
