The proposal is the erection of an extension to a single storey detached property. The existing property is described as fairly modern and single storey with a pitched roof. The extension was refused because its form and design, including a flat roof, was considered out of keeping with the character of the existing building and the surrounding area. The decision states that this would adversely affect the visual appearance of the existing building and the surrounding landscape, contrary to policy O/TRT/P/4 of Planning Circular 1/2000. The portal decision is recorded as refused (delegated).
