Why it was refused
Reason
As stated on the decision notice
1
The proposed extension, by reason of its scale, bulk and design, in particular its positioning
significantly forward of the front building line and proximity to the side boundary of the site, as
well as incongruous roof design, would give rise to a visually jarring and intrusive form of
development, which is out of scale and character with the subject property and wider
streetscene and intrusive and overbearing in relation to the neighbouring property no.26
Abbotts Close, contrary to Policies 7 and 26 of the Local Plan and the provisions of the
Residential Extensions and Alterations SPD.
