Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the development on the character and appearance of the original dwelling and wider area
- the living conditions of neighbouring residents with particular regard to daylight, outlook and privacy
What decided it
The canopy's design characteristics (open sides, flat roof, void spaces) and its integration with existing rear extensions in the terrace meant it did not cause unacceptable harm to character, appearance, or neighbouring living conditions.
