Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the first floor extension and roof terrace on the character and appearance of the host building and the area
  • The effect of the first floor rear extension on the living conditions for the occupiers of 131 Somerset Road, with particular regard to outlook
  • The effect of the roof terrace on the occupiers of Nos 127 and 131 Somerset Road, with particular regard to privacy

What decided it

The development conflicts with the development plan and Framework by reason of harmful effects on character and appearance and on neighbouring living conditions, with no material considerations indicating permission should be granted.

The development is contrary to the development plan and the Framework with no material considerations to outweigh the identified harms; the appeal fails.
