Why it was refused

  1. The siting, design and appearance of the proposed single storey side and front extension would not be in keeping with the character of the original dwelling and the sites wider setting and location. The proposed extension would represent an awkward addition that would particularly harm the front gable element of the property and would appear as incongruous as such. The proposal is contrary to policies HC8(2) and CP14(5) of the adopted Stroud District Local Plan (2015).

From the council's decision notice.
