| 1. | The proposed rear dormer extension by reason of its bulk, scale, mass and design cannot be satisfactorily accommodated within the roof space of the subject dwelling and is intrusive in appearance. The development is considered to cause unacceptable harm to the character and appearance of the subject building and therefore conflicts with the aims of Policy DC61 of the Councils LDF Core Strategy and Development Control Policies DPD and 'Residential Extensions and Alterations' SPD. It furthermore conflicts with the National Planning Policy Framework to secure high quality design that maintains or enhances the character and appearance of the local area. |
