The proposed mansard roof addition by reason of its unsympathetic design, scale, form, and projection above the height of neighbouring properties would detract from established unbroken roof scape and roofline, appearing incongruous and obtrusive within the terrace group on which it forms part. As a consequence, the development would fail to preserve the character and appearance of the host building, group of buildings and conservation area and views enjoyed within it, contrary to the policies of the Local Plan 2019, in particular policies CL1, CL2, CL3, CL6, CL8, and CL11 and guidance within the NPPF (2021) and statute with regard to assessment of proposed development within conservation areas.

Refused/No pre-app or discussion
To assist applicants in finding solutions to problems arising in relation to their development proposals the Local Planning Authority has produced planning policies, and provided written guidance, all of which are available on the Council's website. A pre-application advice service is also offered. In this case the proposal does not comply with guidance and policies. No pre-application discussions were entered into, but the Council is ready to enter into discussions with the applicants through the advice service to assist in the preparation of any new planning application.
