Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and the surrounding area
  • Whether the proposed development would provide acceptable living conditions for future occupiers, with particular regard to garden space provision

What decided it

The proposal's compliance with local design policies and its contribution to housing supply in an area where the Council cannot demonstrate a five-year housing land supply outweighed the modest scale of the extension and garden provision.

The benefits of housing delivery and the proposal's accordance with design policies outweighed any concerns about the modest garden sizes and the reduction in spacing to the neighbouring property.
