1.Policy HOU19 of the Modified Deposit Version of the Borough-Wide Local Plan states that extensions and alterations to dwellings will be permitted where the proposal: (A) is in keeping with the design of the existing dwelling and the character of the area; (B) would not significantly affect the amenities of any neighbouring dwelling; and, (C) would not result in over-development of the site. The proposal is contrary to the objectives of this policy in that the extension would, by virtue of its size and positioning, tend to fill the existing visual gap between Nos. 8 and 10 Sweetacres, thus creating the appearance of a cramped form of development out of keeping with the character of the area. Furthermore, the long and high side wall of the extension would be likely to have an overbearing and oppressive effect on the outlook from the adjoining dwelling (No. 6 Sweetacres).
