Why it was refused
- The proposed extension by virtue of its flat roof design, in a prominent location and built above the existing boundary wall together with the associated frontage parking in a prominent location in the street scene would not respond positively to aspects of local context and character that contribute towards a sense of place. The proposed extension and frontage parking would be prominent, unsympathetic and incongruous additions to the host property that would have a harmful impact upon the character and appearance of the street scene to the detriment of the visual amenity of the area contrary to Policy PS 2 of the Swansea Local Development Plan (2010-2025) and contrary to the supplementary planning guidance Placemaking Guidance for Householder Development (2021).
From the council's decision notice.
