Extension should be sympathetic in scale/height when viewed from London Road.
Materials should sit well with the existing building and wider streetscape.
Although the host building is not Listed, the neighbouring Listed buildings mean careful consideration is needed regarding impact on their setting.
No negative effect on Conservation Area views.

Traffic implications should be considered given existing congestion concerns.
RWH18 – Parking
