Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the unauthorised development on the living conditions of nearby residential occupiers of Hoe Street, Clarendon Road and Livingstone Road, with particular regard to noise and disturbance
- the effect of the unauthorised development on the character and appearance of the host building and the area
What decided it
The development fails to provide acceptable living conditions for neighbouring residential occupiers due to noise and disturbance, and harms the character and appearance of the host building and area.
The business benefits of expansion during the Covid-19 pandemic were insufficient to outweigh the identified harms to neighbouring amenity and character and appearance.
