In their own words

As the neighbours at no. 226 do not benefit from a rear extension and the terraced nature of the properties, the proposal would mean that there would be a 6.0m extension at 3.2m along a tightly spaced boundary…Seeing as the gardens are approximately 17.0m this would mean a third of the garden boundary is covered by the extension

0476/20

This fails to preserve the character of the area as there are no distinct examples of flat roof extensions to the rear of the first floor of properties
