Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the future occupiers of Flat 1 would experience satisfactory living conditions, with particular regard to daylight and outlook
- The effect on the living conditions of the occupiers of 20 Glengall Road, Academy Court and Priory Mansions, with particular regard to daylight, outlook, and privacy
- The effect on the character and appearance of the area and the host property, including the effect on the adjoining building comprising 24-34 Glengall Road (Academy Court)
What decided it
The unacceptable living conditions for future occupiers due to lack of daylight and outlook, combined with unacceptable harm to neighbours' privacy from the elevated terrace and harm to the character and appearance of the streetscene and locally listed building, were decisive in dismissing the appeal.
The delivery of an additional unit of accommodation and improved standard of accommodation were insufficient to outweigh the harm to living conditions of future occupiers, privacy of neighbours, and character and appearance of the area.
