Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area
  • the effect of the development on the living conditions of the residents of 11 Grasmere Avenue (No 11), as regards outlook

What decided it

the current character and appearance of the area, altered by recent nearby development, meant the extensions no longer appeared harmful or out of proportion, and there was no harm to neighbouring outlook.

the development was found to accord with the development plan and there were no other considerations weighing against this finding, so the appeal succeeded without need for a wider balancing exercise
